Dean Shalhoup - Nashua Telegraph

Rabbi Levi Krinsky puts rolled matzo dough into an oven in the gym of the Jewish Federation of New Hampshire on Sunday. The Chabad Lubavitch of New Hampshire-sponsored event was aimed at teaching the process of making matzo before Passover, which is next Sunday. “The simplicity of matzo represents the simplicity of man,” Krinsky said.

MANCHESTER, NH — Scott Schaeffer and his family buy their matzo bread at the store, he says, only because “we don't have the (utensils) to make it at home.”
