I have a lot of shmurah matza leftover from Pesach. Has anyone saved it for the following year? I wonder what will happen if I save it? It's already stale when we eat it the first Pesach Smile It's just so expensive, I'd prefer to use it again next year than nosh it or give it away. It is several hundred dollars worth. TIA.

We used sealed boxes of machine matzoh a year later and it tasted fine. I don't think it would work for the hand matzoh though

Sure you can save it. Just put each box in a bag. Next year before using it just place the matzah in the oven on a cookie sheet for about 20 minutes. It will be fresh and crispy.

We do this before each meal on pesach. (except on shabbos chol hamoed).

You will have to be quite sure it has no bugs, and it might.

Consider: you supported the men who make it. A good thing.

You can sell them (many people use Shmurah Matzah all year because they have intolerance to yeast). Either way there is a Chassidishe Kapeida not to use Matzah from the year before (but ask your LOR for his opinion).

My parents do it almost every year. The matzah is fine, just put it in the oven for a bit. My mom also uses leftover matzah to make matzah meal in the food processor, and then she double wraps it and puts it in the freezer for the next year.

We've been doing this is my house for years. We love challenging ourselves to try and figure out which was last years matzah and which was the "fresh" matzah. No one can ever tell
