About
Then I got a schooling on Passover from Eva Owen and Bill Tewels. The original meal was made in haste by the Israelites the last night before their exodus from Egypt. The food was simple out of necessity. Matzo, an unleavened bread, was the backbone of the meal. It is meant sustain and satisfy. Thats it, a bread/cracker completely without pretense.
