After the search, the <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> is nullified like in any other year, and on the following day, Friday, it is burned. It is best to burn it by the sixth seasonal hour of the day so that no one gets mixed up on other years (SA 444:1-2). <strong>\u1e24ametz<\/strong> that will be eaten during the first two Shabbat meals is carefully set aside.<\/p>\n<p>If it were permissible to eat matza on Erev Pesa\u1e25, we would presumably use matza at our Shabbat meals in order to avoid the problem of <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong>. However, since it is forbidden to eat matza on Erev Pesa\u1e25 so that it is appetizing to us at the Seder (see above, 13:6), we must save <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> for the first two Shabbat meals. In order to avoid problems with <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> foods, many people cook kosher-for-Pesa\u1e25 foods for that Shabbat<strong>. <\/strong>They make <strong>kiddush<\/strong> and eat bread with spreads or salads in a room where people will not eat during Pesa\u1e25. After eating bread, they clean their hands and brush off their clothes, then eat the rest of the meal in the kosher-for-Pesa\u1e25 dining room.<\/p>\n<p>The first Shabbat meal is eaten on Friday night, and the second on Shabbat morning. It must be completed by the end of the fourth seasonal hour, at which time <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> becomes forbidden (as printed in many calendars; see above, 3:6). Shabbat morning prayers must begin and end early so that the meal can be completed in time.<\/p>\n<p>After the second meal, all remaining <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> must be gathered from the plates and tablecloth. Since it may not be burned on Shabbat, it is a good idea to flush it down the toilet and thus completely destroy it. People generally plan their Shabbat meals wisely, so that it will be easy to gather up the leftover <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> and dispose of it. After this, the <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> must be nullified; the <strong>bitul<\/strong> must be recited by the end of the fifth hour of the day. After the meal, one should brush his teeth well (above, 11:12).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Se\u2019uda shlishit<\/strong>, the third Shabbat meal, presents a problem: It is forbidden to eat <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> after the fourth hour of the day, and matza is forbidden the entire day. As a result, the obligation to eat a third meal is met by eating meat and fish or various fruits (SA 444:1). One may also eat matza balls, and according to many authorities, one may eat whole <strong>matzot <\/strong>that have been thoroughly cooked. One must avoid eating excessively during the third meal so that the matza of Seder night remains appetizing. There are other suggestions for those who wish to destroy all of their <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong> before Shabbat, as explained in the notes.<sup><a href='#_te01ftn14_1' id='_te01ftnref14_1' class='aup1'>[1]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<div>\n<hr size=\"1\" \/>\n<div>\n<a href='#_te01ftnref14_1' id='_te01ftn14_1'>[1]<\/a>. <strong>Egg<\/strong> <strong>matza <\/strong>or <strong>matza ashira <\/strong>is made out of flour that was kneaded with fruit juice, which does not become <strong>\u1e25ametz<\/strong>. The Sephardic custom is to permit eating it on Pesa\u1e25, while the Ashkenazic custom is to forbid (see above, 8:1). According to all customs, <strong>matza ashira <\/strong>may be used for the first two Shabbat meals, before the end of the fourth hour, although to fulfill the requirements of the Shabbat meal, one must be <strong>kovei\u2019a se\u2019uda <\/strong>(\u201cestablish a meal\u201d). That is, one must eat the volume of four eggs (<strong>ke-beitzim<\/strong>) of egg matza and, with the rest of the meal, become fully satisfied. This will change the <strong>berakhot <\/strong>on egg matza from \u201c<strong>mezonot<\/strong>\u201d and \u201c<strong>Al Ha-mi\u1e25ya<\/strong>\u201d to \u201c<strong>ha-motzi<\/strong>\u201d and \u201c<strong>Birkat Ha-mazon<\/strong>\u201d (see <strong>Peninei Halakha:<\/strong> <strong>Berakhot<\/strong> 6:4). If <strong>matza ashira<\/strong> was baked with a reliable process (see above, 13:7), Sephardim may use it for <strong>se\u2019uda shlishit<\/strong>, but it should be eaten by the end of the ninth seasonal hour of the day, about three hours before sunset. According to Ashkenazic custom, <strong>matza ashira <\/strong>may not be eaten after the fourth hour of the day (SHT and <strong>Igrot Moshe<\/strong>, in contrast to AHS, which permits eating it on Erev Pesa\u1e25, until the beginning of the holiday).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cooked matza:<\/strong> Another option is to cook a whole matza. According to most opinions, one may eat cooked matza on Erev Pesa\u1e25, since it has been fundamentally altered and one would not fulfill the mitzva of eating matza on Seder night with such matza. Because it constitutes at least a <strong>kezayit<\/strong>, its <strong>berakhot <\/strong>are still \u201c<strong>ha-motzi<\/strong>\u201d and \u201c<strong>Birkat Ha-mazon<\/strong>\u201d and consequently one may use it to fulfill the obligation to eat three Shabbat meals. This is the ruling of MB 471:20 and SHT 19 <strong>ad loc.<\/strong>, AHS 444:5, and <strong>Ye\u1e25aveh Da\u2019at<\/strong> 1:91 n. 10. SHT 471:20 mentions in the name of SAH and <strong>\u1e24ayei Adam <\/strong>that frying is the same as cooking, and that <strong>Pri Megadim<\/strong> equivocates. On the other hand, MA 444:2 says in Maharil\u2019s name that he never saw anyone adopt the practice of eating cooked matza at <strong>se\u2019uda shlishit<\/strong>, and Gra implies that it may not be eaten on Erev Pesa\u1e25. Those who wish to follow the majority ruling and fulfill their obligation with cooked matza may do so (see SHT 444:1 and above 13:7). MB 444:8 raises the idea of splitting the second meal into two, but this is not ideal, as <strong>se\u2019uda shlishit <\/strong>should be eaten after midday (SA 291:2; <strong>Peninei Halakha: Shabbat <\/strong>7:2).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When the 14th of Nisan coincides with Shabbat, bedikat \u1e25ametz is performed with a berakha on the night of the 13th, Thursday night, because it is impossible to seek and eliminate \u1e25ametz on Shabbat.
