Model Matza Bakery

We had an absolutely great time at the model matza bakery in Brighton Beach. We learned and performed all the steps for the process of baking matza.

First we learned which ingredients we need in order to make matza.


We started off with stalks of wheat.


Separated the kernel from the chaff.


Then ground the kernels of wheat into a powder.

We sifted the powder to get rid of anything we
don't want in the flour. And now our flour
is ready!

We poured the flour into a big bowl.

Had water ready to pour in right after.

Started kneading right away! We only have eighteen minutes before 
it becomes chometz. We do not want to waste time!

Once the dough is made we shaped it into round matzas.



Rolled the dough out until it was very thin.







And then poked holes into the matza dough to make sure it won't rise in the oven.
Yumm! What delicious matza!
