The Feast of Unleavened Bread (Part 2)

What Can I Eat During The Feast Of Unleavened Bread?

The following ingredients are those you need to be on the lookout for:
1. Sodium Bicarbonate
2. Baking Soda
3. Yeast
4. Sourdough Starter
5. Baking Powder
6. Ammonium Bicarbonate
7. Ammonium Carbonate
8. Potassium Bicarbonate

So, do not eat any foods with those ingredients. They are leavening and we can't eat leaven during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

The following are NOT considered leavening:
1. Brewer's Yeast (cannot leaven as it is a dead form)
2. Autolyzed Yeast Extract (this is a flavoring additive)
3. Torula Yeast (a nutritional additive)
4. Yeast Extract (a flavoring)
5. Eggs and Egg Whites (not a natural leavening, used as a binder in most recipes)
6. Stream or Air (it can puff-up but not in the normal sense of leavening)
7. Tartrate Powder (by itself it cannot leaven)
8. Alumsorbitan Monostearate, Sodium Caseinate, Sodium Silicoaluminate, Polysorbate 60 (all texture enhancers, not leaveners)

So, as long as you are looking out for the ingredients above you should be good to go during the Feats of Unleavened Bread.

A lot of food is Unleavened. Feel free to eat the following:
1. Rice and Pasta, including sauces that don't contain leavening.
2. All fruits and vegetables.
3. Un-breaded meats, fish, and poultry (unless you bread it yourself using unleavened items such as crushed nuts, plain seasoned flour, or dry instant mashed potatoes).
4. Any unleavened breads, muffins, crackers, and flour-tortillas that you make yourself or buy (for instance, plain Triscuit crackers are fine as they contain no leavening. Be careful of the flavored varieties).
5. Eggs and dairy products are fine.
6. Corn tortillas and hard taco shells are generally unleavened. But check to be sure. Avoid store bought flour tortillas as most contain yeast and/or baking soda.
7. Beans, and legumes, such as peas are fine. Nuts and seeds are fine too.
8. Unleavened desserts are fine such as ice cream, unleavened cookies, and desserts made with puff pastry (check labels-most store bought puff-pastry is unleavened). Also many store bought pies don't contain leavening.
9. When baking during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, use regular flours, not the self-rising kinds. Also avoid multi-purpose baking mixes such as Bisquick.

Here's the PDF if you want to check it out. It has some recipes you can try. I actually made the basic unleavened bread and we loved it.
