Product Review: Yehuda Gluten-Free Matzo Style Squares

Posted on | March 31, 2012 | 2 Comments

Easter is almost upon us. We have been sent a few items from glutenfreematzo.com that are kosher or used during Passover. Matzo is unleavened bread that is eaten during Passover, but can also be eaten the week before.

Glutenfreematzo.com sent us Yehuda gluten free matzo-style squares to try. They also distribute toasted onion matzo, gluten free kosher pasta, and other gluten free kosher foods for Passover.

I have never tried matzo and felt very excited to try it. Inside each 10.5 ounce box there were approximately 10 matzo-style crackers that measured about 8 in x 8in. Unfortunately when I opened the box I saw that over half of them were either cracked or crushed to crumbs. When I tried to pull the remaining whole pieces out they cracked as well. I wasn’t able to see one whole matzo.

I tried one piece by itself, without condiments, and found it to be similar in taste and texture to a saltine cracker. The taste was mild and simple, with a tiny bit of salt. It was very thin (which is probably why it cracked so easily), with a nice crunch. It stayed crisp as I chewed and didn’t turn into mush like saltines would. It is very good! I would eat this as a snack any day.

Rating: 4 1/2 stars

Pros: Stayed crisp with just enough salt

Cons: Half of the crackers broke in transit

If you are Jewish and used to eating Matzah – and now unable to eat wheat, trust me – Gluten free Yehuda Matzah, plain or onion – is fabulous.

It tastes great, makes wonderful Matzah brei, and is the best thing I’ve eaten for GF Passover food in years!

Yehuda should get an award for creating these.
