Urchatz and Karpas

Urchatz

Wash your hands, pouring water three times on the right hand and then three times on the left hand, but do not say a berachah.

See below, “Hosafos,” for what to do if you accidentally made a berachah when washing for Urchatz.

Karpas

Take a piece of onion (or potato) less than a kezayis and dip it into salt water. Say the berachah of Borei Pri Ha’adamah, having in mind that the berachah also applies to the maror and chazeres. Eat the karpas without leaning.
