That depends upon if you're asking about a recipe or about eating matzah as part of the Torah-command. In recipes, you'll just have to experiment, though in principle the answer is Yes. Break up the flat matzah, and in effect you now have farfel. For the Torah-command of eating matzah itself, flat matzahs should be used, except for someone who is not able to eat it that way.

what kind of starch can you eat for passover?

Potato starch is OK for all Jews. Sephardic Jews are OK with rice. Ashkenazic Jews use lots of matzah meal. Coarsely ground meal for some purposes, cake meal (finely ground) for other purposes. And, of course, whole matzah or coarsely crumbled matzah farfel have an important place. Matzah lazagne can be made, substituting matzah for flat noodles between layers (put the matzah in dry, and of course, make it vegetarian because meat cannot be included in foods meals that include any dairy products). Fried matzah is like french toast, but made with broken matzah and egg. Some people make it savory, with onions, others serve it with maple syrup. Both are good.


Can matzo meal be used in place of farfel?

The substance is the same, but the texture is very different. If farfel is all you have and you're forced to use it in a recipe in place of matzo meal, you should do the best you can to pulverize it into the finest powder you can. Put 1/2 to 3/4 cup of farfel into a zip-top plastic bag, lay the bag flat on the counter, and roll back and forth over it with a rolling pin or a glass jar.

Why do most countries use H instead of B when it comes to notes?

I once hear that other countries use the H instead of a B (or B flat, I can't remember) because of Bach. B=B A=A C=C H=B or B flat I cant remember if the first B in his name was a B natural or B flat. A lot of Bach's Fugues have a sequence of the notes.... B, A, C, and B flat..or back in the day.. B, A, C, H

Why is chocolate matza so good?

Let's face it. Plain matzah, especially Passover matzah, is really, really bland. But then for the traditional use, it's not supposed to be tasty (unless you like the taste, to each his/her own). So anything perks it up, such as the "Hillel sandwich" of charoses, or making "matzah brei" (matzah cooked into an omelet served either sweet with a sprinkle of something sweet like brown sugar, or savory with a sprinkle of salt & pepper). Osem (an Israeli food producer) makes a chocolate/orange covered matzah that is kosher for Passover, and makes a fairly tasty dessert or snack although it is not as crispy as one might like.
