Matza is unleavened bread made with just flour and water. There is no leavening used. Essentially, it's like a really big (unleavened) cracker or hardtack.

In order for it to be kosher for Passover, it must be baked within 18 minutes of the time that the flour is mixed with water (and ordinary store-bought flour is not used, since normal processing includes washing of harvested wheat).

It is specifically eaten during Passover. However, some people may eat it year round because they enjoy it.
