The celebration begins in the evening with a festive meal- Passover Seder. It symbolizes the last night before the Exodus of the Jews from Egypt. The Passover Plate contains symbolic foods- unleavened bread (Matzah), roasted meat, bitter herbs and a hard-boiled egg. On the first day of the feast, all firstborn males spend the day fasting. This fast day is known as Taanit Bechorot.
