Shabbat Challah, One Loaf:

In a bowl mix:

  • 200 ml warm water
  • 2 package of active dry yeast (yummy!)
  • 1 pinch of sugar
  • 1 pinch of cinnamon

Wait 10 minutes

Add to the bowl:

  • 1.5 teaspoons of salt (7.5 ml)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil (60ml)
  • 1/6th cup of sugar (40 ml)

Fold in:

  • 4 cups of flower (more or less to get the right consistency of dough.)

Knead like crazy until you drop (5-15 minutes)

Note: if you want to knead in a machine, be sure to use a Braun or a Bosch mixer, with a bottom hook, rather than a Kitchen-aid with a top hook. You will break your Kitchen-aid after a few months because the gear box has a plastic cover (even though it has metal gears)

Cover with a wet towel and wait 45-60 minutes Bang Down Knead some more. It's fun!

Braid

egg wash:

  • 1 egg + 1 yolk
  • 1 tablespoon water
  1. Give one coating. Wait 10 minutes. Give a second coating. Cover with plastic wrap.
  2. sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Let rise for 30-45 minutes

Bake for 30 minutes at 350 F
