[Avodah] If You Are Choshesh for GeBrochts You MUST be Choshesh that Youir Matza is Chamets

[Rabbi Meir G. Rabi via Avodah]

How do we determine
when the dough is baked to the point
where it can no longer become Chamets?

when there are no Chutim NimShaChim
When the Matza is torn apart
there are no doughy threads stretching between
the two pieces.

These days this test is not available
because so little water is added to the flour
that there is no opportunity for the chemical reaction
that activates the gluten
and even when the Matza, or the batch of dough is torn
BEFORE it is put into the oven
there are NO Chutim NimShaChim
[this is noted by the Chazon Ish]

So
if one suggests that
there is a possibility that
some flour
within [but not on the surface of] the Matza
which is protected from the heat of the oven
and does not become baked
[as once it is baked, flour can not become Chamets]
then the Chashash that this flour
might become Chamets if it becomes wet
pales into insignificance
and is completely eclipsed by the much greater risk
that the middle part of the Matza
which may not have been baked
may actually be Chamets [Gamur]

The fact that it is now now dry
means nothing
that is simply dehydrated dough
AKA Chamets,
maybe Chamets Nukshe



Best,

Meir G. Rabi
