Can Matzah Be Soft?
Matzah can be soft if it is made with a higher moisture content and baked for a shorter time at a lower temperature. This type of matzah is known as “shmura matzah” and is often preferred by those who find it easier to eat or prefer a softer texture. However, traditional matzah is typically much harder and crispy, as it is baked quickly at high temperatures to prevent it from rising and becoming leavened.
