  1. One should take the bottom Matzah and eat it together with Maror and dip it in Charoset and then wipe the Charoset off. [1] Some say not to dip the Korech in Charoset. [2]
  2. One should not make a interruption not related to the mitzvot from the Bracha on Matzah until eating the Korech. [3] After the fact if one made an interruption one still doesn’t make a Bracha on Korech. [4]
  3. Sephardim should say the words “Zecher LeMikdash KeHillel”. [5] Ashkenazim should say זֵכֶר לְמִקְדָּשׁ כְּהִלֵּל. כֵּן עָשָׂה הִלֵּל בִּזְמַן שבֵּית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ הָיָה קַיָים: הָיָה כּוֹרֵךְ מַצָּה וּמָרוֹר וְאוֹכֵל בְּיַחַד [6]
  4. One should eat the Korech while leaning. [7] If one didn’t lean and it’s difficult to repeat it one doesn’t have to. [8]
