Not a dumb question at all Magdalena! I'm rather red-faced for not checking
the recipe. For Passover you would omit the bread crumbs and use 6 T of
matzoh meal instead. Matzoh meal containing no levening agent of course.
You _could_ use ground up matzoh in place ot the meal, just be sure it is
ground up very fine!

because corn can be made into bread >>>
No, corn products are out because they *appear* to rise (IE, get bigger when
cooked) Over the course of the Middle Ages a lot of rules were made called
*minhag* (custom) to assure that people would not break the basic rule.
(It's called *Fences around the Torah, but let's not go there.. it's late)
Anyway foods that *appear* to rise, ie, get bigger such as rice, beans, corn
are not eaten during the Passover.
>>>I have a recipe that contains no inherently unkosher ingredients except
that one. Does anybody know if I could substitute simple syrup, or some
other sugar
product?>>>
What? Corn syrup? If the item is intended as a sweetener, just substitute
another sweetener.
