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).

MATZO BREI

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.
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.
MOZZARELLA AND SPINACH MATZO BREI
Matzo brei is one of my all-time favorite foods! It is typically eaten on Passover since it is customary to avoid leavened bread. Matzo, a cracker-like unleavened bread, gets soft and chewy when it's soaked and scrambled with eggs in this traditional dish. Some people like sweet matzo brei sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, but I am on Team Savory Brei 4ever!

Steps:
- Heat the oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, fill a medium bowl with cold water and submerge the matzo. Soak for 1 minute, then drain and set aside. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until homogenous. Stir in the matzo and set aside.
- Add the spinach to the shallots, one handful at a time, stirring until wilted. Add another pinch of salt. Pour in the egg mixture and cook until the bottom is set. Use a spatula to gently pull the bottom cooked parts to the sides of the skillet to make space for more of the mixture to cook. Add the cheese. Repeat this gentle pulling process until a majority of the mixture is set, 1 to 2 more times, then turn off the heat. The eggs should still be quite wet, but they'll continue to cook a bit in the skillet. Continue folding them gently, and once they've reached your desired firmness, remove them from the skillet and serve them immediately. Top with the hot sauce and ketchup.

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

MATZOH BRIE (FRIED MATZOH)
To all my friends who may not be familiar with Old Testament cuisine, matzoh is the unleavened bread that the Jews were in the midst of making when they had to quickly leave Egypt and didn't have time to wait for the yeast to work. If you go into most any New York City delicatessen and ask the waiter what matzoh brie is, he'll probably say "scrambled eggs and matzoh!" Period!! I would prefer to think of matzoh brie as the Jewish answer to French toast. So, please, don't wait for Passover to enjoy this wonderful treat. You can have it for breakfast, brunch, or even a midnight snack...anytime of the year. Many people, including me, enjoy a savory version (and at the end of the recipe instructions, I have that version), but, I'm usually in the mood for sweet, so, I like my matzoh brie sprinkled with cinnamon-sugar and accompanied with orange marmalade.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, break the matzoh boards into large pieces. Fill the bowl with very warm water and immediately drain all the water out. The matzoh should be barely dampened.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, the sour cream, and a little salt together. Stir this mixture gently into the matzohs, coating all the broken crackers completely without breaking them into lots of tiny pieces.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter (or butter and corn oil) over medium heat. Pour the matzoh/egg mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly. When the bottom begins to brown, in about 5 minutes, begin flipping it over, It will break into pieces as you flip the matzoh. (You can try to turn it pancake-style, but I prefer to break up the mixture, so that there are more browned, crunchy edges -- I love those!). Continue cooking, stirring, and flipping until all the pieces of matzoh are cooked through.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately with some more sour cream and applesauce on the side, if desired. (Some people even like maple syrup on the fried matzoh -- not me, but whatever you like!).
- FOR A MORE SAVORY VERSION: Chop up a small onion and cook until softened in the butter before adding the matzoh/egg mixture, to which you can add a little ground black pepper.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and add a dash of salt and pepper. In another bowl, soak the matzoh in warm water for about 30 seconds. Remove and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the matzoh to the egg mixture, tossing gently to coat (making sure not to break up the matzoh too much), and add this to the hot skillet. Allow the matzoh to cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom begins to brown. Turn it over, stirring gently to cook through and allow the other side to brown (the matzoh will begin to break up at this point, which is fine). Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
