How to Use
For matzo ball soup, mix matzo meal with eggs, oil, and salt, refrigerate the batter about 20 minutes, then roll into balls and simmer in chicken broth for 20 to 30 minutes. For latkes, combine grated potato with egg, matzo meal, salt, and pepper, then fry until golden.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Streit's Matzo Meal used for?
Streit's Matzo Meal is finely ground unleavened bread, used as the base for matzo balls, latkes, and Passover cakes, as a coating for fried or baked chicken and fish, and as a 1:1 bread crumb substitute in most savory recipes. It is Kosher certified, Passover approved, and packed in a 12 oz box made in the USA.
Is Streit's Matzo Meal Kosher for Passover?
Yes. Streit's Matzo Meal is Kosher certified and Passover approved, meeting strict standards for traditional Passover baking and cooking. Streit's has produced kosher matzo products in the United States since 1925, and this matzo meal is one of its core pantry staples used across generations of home cooks.
How is matzo meal different from matzo cake meal or flour?
Matzo meal has a fine, sand-like grind suited to bread crumb replacement, coatings, and matzo balls, while matzo cake meal is ground even finer for delicate Passover baking like cakes and cookies. Regular wheat flour is leavened-friendly and not Passover approved, so recipes swap in matzo meal or cake meal specifically to keep dishes kosher for the holiday.
Does Streit's Matzo Meal contain allergens?
Yes. Matzo meal is made from wheat flour, so it contains gluten and is not suitable for a gluten-free diet. It is produced in a facility that follows kosher production standards. Anyone managing a wheat allergy or gluten intolerance should read the printed ingredient panel on the box before using it.
