This guide covers everything you need to order from KosherTop for a complete Passover — the matzah baked in Jerusalem, the Kosher for Passover Israeli snacks, the Passover-certified products that Israeli families use, and the guide to what "Kosher for Passover" actually means.

What "Kosher for Passover" Means — The Essential Guide

Passover dietary laws are more complex than ordinary kashrut. The central prohibition: chametz — any leavened product made from wheat, barley, oats, rye, or spelt that has been allowed to ferment or rise. During the eight days of Passover, chametz is not merely forbidden to eat — it may not be in your possession at all.

What replaces chametz:

Matzah — unleavened bread, made from flour and water, baked within 18 minutes before the dough can begin to rise. The central food of Passover, representing both the haste of the Exodus and the humility of a people who left without waiting for their bread to rise.

Kitniyot — a secondary category of foods (legumes, rice, corn) forbidden by Ashkenazi tradition but permitted by Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews. This distinction is significant for Israeli products: many Israeli Passover products are certified Kosher for Passover for Sephardic Jews (who eat kitniyot) while not being permitted for Ashkenazi Jews.

Look for: Products marked "כשר לפסח" (Kosher for Passover) with additional designation of "לאוכלי קטניות" (for those who eat kitniyot) or without that designation (suitable for all).

🫓 Matzah — The Heart of the Seder

Matzot Rishon — Traditional Passover Matzah from Jerusalem, 1kg

<citation index="18-1">Authentic Passover Matzot — traditional Jewish unleavened bread baked according to Passover standards. Perfect for Seder night and holiday meals. Baked in Jerusalem, produced by Em Hachita Ltd. in Jerusalem, Israel, using traditional baking methods that preserve authentic taste and texture. Kosher for Passover.</citation>

Matzot Rishon is one of Israel's most respected matzah producers, based in Jerusalem. Matzah baked in Jerusalem — the city at the center of the Passover story — carries a connection to the holiday's meaning that factory-produced American matzah cannot replicate.

The 1kg format is the right quantity for a family Seder — enough for the ceremonial requirements (two whole matzot on the Seder plate, the Afikomen) and for eating throughout the holiday.

🥜 Bamba Kosher for Passover — The Israeli Passover Snack

<citation index="15-1">Bamba is a baked snack containing 50% peanuts, enriched in vitamins and iron and free of preservatives and food coloring. Kosher for Passover.</citation>

This is one of the most beloved facts about Israeli Passover: Bamba is certified Kosher for Passover. Israel's most iconic snack — made from corn and peanuts, without any chametz ingredients — receives Passover certification every year, allowing Israeli children (and adults) to continue eating Bamba throughout the holiday week.

For Israeli families in America, Bamba Kosher for Passover is often the first thing that goes on the Passover shopping list. It solves the perennial Passover snacking problem: what do the children eat during the eight days when their usual snacks aren't available?

Kosher: Kosher for Passover (including kitniyot — suitable for Sephardic tradition; check with your rabbi for Ashkenazi practice)

🍝 Passover Rice Noodles — For Sephardic Families

Osem Spirali Rice Pasta — Kosher for Passover, 250g

For Sephardic and Mizrahi families who eat kitniyot (including rice) during Passover: Osem's rice-flour pasta provides the pasta experience during a week when wheat pasta is forbidden. The spirali shape works particularly well in soups and salads.

🌾 Gluten-Free Flour for Passover Baking

Dagesh Whole Grain Rice Flour — Gluten-Free, 500g

<citation index="20-1">Whole Rice Flour is 100% stone ground from the highest quality whole grain brown rice and has a mild, nutty flavor. Use as breading, for thickening sauces and gravies, and in gluten-free baking recipes like pancakes, muffins and gluten-free bread. Kosher Parve.</citation>

For Passover baking without matzah meal — particularly for families with celiac members who cannot eat wheat matzah — rice flour provides a versatile gluten-free baking base. Kosher parve, suitable for Passover for those who eat kitniyot.

The Passover Pantry — What Else to Order from Israel

Oils and Fats

During Passover, standard vegetable oils may be acceptable depending on their certification. Israeli extra virgin olive oil — Etz Hazait or Yad Mordechai — is naturally Kosher for Passover without any special certification needed (pure olive oil contains no chametz). This is the most practical Passover cooking oil.

🛒 Order Etz Hazait Olive Oil → 🛒 Order Yad Mordechai Olive Oil →

Honey and Sweeteners

Pure honey is naturally Kosher for Passover. Yad Mordechai honey — Israeli, Mehadrin certified — requires no special Passover certification because it is a natural single-ingredient food with no additives.

Similarly, Yad Mordechai Silan (date syrup) — pure dates, nothing else — is naturally Passover-appropriate and one of the most versatile sweeteners for Passover cooking and baking.

Tahini — The Passover Essential for Sephardic Families

Sesame is kitniyot — forbidden for Ashkenazi Jews on Passover, permitted for Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews. For Sephardic families, tahini is an essential Passover ingredient: it goes on the Seder plate's charoset in some traditions, appears throughout the week as a dip and sauce, and is one of the most nutritionally complete foods for a holiday week when dietary variety is restricted.

Israeli tahini — Har Bracha or Al Arz — is naturally Passover-appropriate for those who eat kitniyot.

Nuts and Dried Fruits — The Charoset Ingredients

Charoset — the sweet paste on the Seder plate representing the mortar used by enslaved Israelites — is made from nuts, dried fruit, and wine. Israeli charoset combines Ashkenazi and Sephardic traditions:

Ashkenazi charoset: Walnuts + apples + cinnamon + wine Sephardic/Mizrahi charoset: Medjool dates + figs + nuts + spices + wine

Both versions are naturally Kosher for Passover when made from quality Israeli ingredients.

For the perfect Israeli charoset:

• Israeli Medjool Dates — the foundation of Sephardic charoset
• Halawi Dates — deeper, more complex flavor
• Black Uzbek Raisins — no sulfites, natural sweetness
• Organic Natural Peanuts — for nut-based versions
• Yad Mordechai Honey — for sweetening

🛒 Order Israeli Medjool Dates → 🛒 Order Black Uzbek Raisins 250g → 🛒 Order Organic Peanuts 1000g →

Spices for Passover Cooking

Pure, ground spices are naturally Kosher for Passover as long as they contain only the spice and no additives. The Ta'am Vareach Israeli spice range — cumin, turmeric, black pepper, garlic powder, cinnamon — is all-natural with no MSG or additives, making them naturally suitable for Passover.

Essential Passover spices:

• Turmeric — for golden Passover chicken soup, rice (Sephardic)
• Cumin — for spiced meats, charoset, soups
• Cinnamon — for charoset, desserts, sweet potato tzimmes
• Sweet Paprika — for roasted meats and vegetables

The Seder Plate

The six symbolic foods on the Seder plate:

Maror (Bitter Herbs) — Fresh horseradish, representing the bitterness of slavery

Charoset — Made from Israeli dates, raisins, and nuts (recipe above)

Karpas (Vegetable) — Fresh parsley or celery

Zeroa (Shank Bone) — Roasted lamb or chicken bone

Beitzah (Egg) — Roasted egg

Chazeret — Romaine lettuce (second bitter herb)

The Passover Meal — Israeli Style

Matzah Ball Soup (Kneidlach) Chicken soup with light, fluffy matzah balls — the quintessential Israeli Ashkenazi Passover first course. The key to light matzah balls: use schmaltz (chicken fat) if you have it, and don't over-mix the batter.

Moroccan-Spiced Lamb The Sephardic Passover centerpiece: lamb braised with preserved lemons, olives, saffron, and Moroccan spices. Served over rice (for kitniyot-eating families) or alongside roasted vegetables.

Israeli-Style Roast Chicken Chicken rubbed with olive oil, paprika, turmeric, and garlic — the everyday Israeli recipe elevated to Passover formality. Roasted over sweet potatoes and carrots.

Passover Chocolate Cake (Flourless) Made with Israeli Elite cocoa powder, eggs, dark chocolate, and sugar — no flour, no matzah meal. Dense, fudgy, and genuinely extraordinary.

Passover Breakfast — For the Eight Days

With chametz forbidden, Israeli Passover breakfasts look different:

Matzah with Israeli toppings: Olive oil + za'atar (Sephardic) · Honey + butter · Chocolate spread · Israeli white cheese

Eggs every way: Shakshuka (tomatoes, peppers, eggs — naturally chametz-free) is the Israeli Passover breakfast that converts anyone

Fresh fruit spread: Medjool dates + Israeli honey + fresh fruit

Passover Bamba for children — the Israeli solution to the "what do the kids eat" problem
