General translation:
The preparations for Passover included cleaning, and baking matzot. The wheat was selected grain by grain. Afterwards, they would grind the wheat with a special grinder, fill dishes with water, cover them and leave it overnight. They used to knead and roll the dough swiftly, and bake the matzot in a Tabun oven. The women prepared the matzot and the men backed the matzot.
The process of Hagʾala (koshering dishes) is also described here.
