Gra 444:7 | # It is forbidden to eat egg matzah after the 10th hour.<ref>Tosfot Pesachim 99b, Rosh Pesachim 10:2, Shulchan Aruch O.C. 471:1. From the Gra 444:7 it seems that according to the Rambam and Zohar it is forbidden all day. Maharam Chalavah Pesachim 99b seems to agree.</ref> There is a difference of opinions whether Ashkenazim who have a minhag not to have egg matzah all of Pesach may eat it on Erev Pesach.<ref>See Rama 462:4. Pri Megadim E”A 444:2 thinks that the Rama holds that the minhag is not to have matzah ashira even on Erev Pesach. Aruch Hashulchan 444:5 permits having matzah ashira on Erev Pesach. [https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=46448&pgnum=240 Nitai Gavriel Pesach 2:44:7] cites both opinions. Igrot Moshe OC 1:155 allows matzah ashira until the fifth halachic hour.</ref> | ||
