Passover Alert - Soft Matzah

March 15, 2021 from the cRc:

A number of community members have approached the cRc about a brand of soft matzah recently advertised locally.

Please note, that for Ashkenazim, according to the predominant custom soft matzahs should not be used for Pesach (Halichot Shlomo, Hilchot Pesach 9:42, note 80).

At the same time, we recognize that while some Sefardic authorities legitimately permit and even promote its use for Sefardim, it is critical that the hechsher be of the highest standing.
