Directions:
The Afghan community prepared the matzoh for Passover in their homes.
Muslin growers (my Afghan cook spoke of them as "a good people"!)
provide clean wheat kernels from their farms. The rabbi & the people
of the Jewish community cleaned the stone wheat grinder as part of
the Passover ritual & the flour was ground. Each family takes the
quantity of flour they will require to their homes. The dough is
prepared, w/flour and water only, & round matzoh are baked in a
tandoor.
Jewish ladies go from one home to another (w/their faces covered in
the street, a Muslim custom) helping each other to prepare the
Seders. The neighbors congregate to the home of one family & cook as
well as celebrate the Seders together.
It is a coincidence that I saw these matzoh being baked in a tandoor
in Calcutta by the Baghdadi Jewish ladies preparing for their
traditional Seder.
