About Matzo meal

Matzo meal is matzo that has been crushed or ground into a dry crumb. It is used as a breadcrumb-like ingredient, so it is distinct from intact matzo sheets and from flour made directly from grain.

The meal may be coarse or fine, with a dry, crumbly texture and the plain toasted flavour of the matzo it comes from. Particle size affects how it absorbs liquid and behaves in a mixture.
