MATZO BREI

Matzo brei (pronounced like fry) is one of the few dishes from my childhood that I'll never outgrow. The dampened shards of matzo mixed with beaten eggs and milk and then cooked in butter will never go out of style. I like to serve this matzo brei recipe in one big piece, but you can also scramble the mixture. -Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

CLASSIC MATZO BREI

In this matzo brei (rhymes with fry) recipe, the matzo sheets are browned in butter until crisp before being lightly scrambled with eggs. You make this either sweet or savory as you prefer. Add black pepper, plenty of salt and chives for a savory version, or Demerara sugar and maple syrup or honey if you would like something sweeter. It's a fine breakfast or brunch any time of the year, and especially during Passover.

Steps:

  • Under cool running water, rinse matzo sheets until they are quite wet. Set it aside and let sit to soften while you prepare the pan.
  • Place a large, preferably nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add butter. Once it melts and the foam subsides, break matzo sheets into bite-size pieces and add to pan. Sauté matzo in butter until it browns all over, about 2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, salt and pepper (if you're making the dish savory) to pan and scramble the mixture until it is just set but still light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with sugar (if you're making it sweet) and toss well.
  • Serve matzo brei sprinkled with salt and topped with chives (savory), or with salt, additional sugar and maple syrup (sweet).

RUTH REICHL'S MATZO BREI

Elizabeth Barbone of Troy, New York, writes: "I read Ruth Reichl's 'Letter from the Editor' (April 2004), in which she states that 'matzo brei is one of life's perfect foods,' with great interest. However, no recipe for matzo brei appears. Is there any chance of Gourmet publishing a recipe for this 'perfect' food? I would love to try it."

Steps:

  • Crumble matzos into a large sieve placed over a bowl to catch crumbs, then hold sieve under running cold water until matzos are moist and softened but not completely disintegrated, about 15 seconds. Transfer to bowl with crumbs, then add eggs and salt and mix gently with a fork.
  • Heat butter in a 10- to 12-inch skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides. Add matzo mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until eggs are scrambled and matzo has begun to crisp, about 3 minutes.

4 matzos
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter

MATZO BREI OR FRIED MATZO

This recipe was much-loved when I was growing up (typically made the week or so after Passover, when there was an abundance of matzo in our home). Now that I am grown and married, every Passover my mom gives me and my brother each a box of matzo to take home after seder, and this is my favorite recipe for it (I usually make it for breakfast).

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs (like you're about to make scrambled eggs) in a medium-size bowl, and set aside.
  • Wet each matzo sheet under warm running water, until thoroughly wet and easy to break apart. Shake the excess water from the matzo.
  • Break the matzo sheets into pieces in the bowl with the beaten eggs, until all the matzo is broken up.
  • Spray a pan with cooking spray and heat it on the stovetop on medium-high heat.
  • Mix the egg and matzo together, so the egg coats the matzo, and pour into the heated pan.
  • Cook as you are cooking scrambled eggs, until desired doneness.
  • Once the food is plated, sprinkle lightly with salt, to taste.

3 large eggs
2 matzos
cooking spray
salt, to taste
