Hey can I recommend that instead of making challah, you make a brioche? They're basically the same thing, but challah has a significant religious and spiritual meaning to the Jewish faith. Both challah and brioche are sweet eggy breads but brioche doesn't have a religious meaning. Sorry if this is rude, it's just important to me.
Whew, it’s a good thing I’m Jewish then.
This is from several years ago now and I still think about it constantly lmao
Also before anyone asks, yes you can bake challah if you’re not Jewish. Just don’t claim it’s better than what somebody’s Jewish mom makes because you will never win that battle
Also challah (the bread, not the dough-sacrificing ritual) is basically the same as other braided eggs breads in Europe, like Polish chałka and Czech vánočka. Cause Europe is where Ashkenazim picked it up, through cultural exchange.
Also all Jews know that all bread is challah when it’s Friday night and mom just didn’t have time/energy to bake the bread
That pita is now challah
So is this laffah
A baguette will work too
But fr never act like your challah is better than my mom’s bc I’ll get really violent really fast
I can’t even count how many times I’ve used regular ol’ sliced bread at Shabbat. Sweet Hawaiian Rolls are also great.
My mom doesn’t even bake challah and I will still square up to defend her honor lmao
HELLO THIS IS TAYLOR YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD JEW.
EVERYONE LISTEN UP. CHALLAH IS A FUCKING GIFT TO THE TABLE. CHALLAH IS THE MOST DELICIOUS PIECE OF BREAD I HAVE EVER AND WILL EVER PUT IN MY MOUTH*. AND EVERYONE CAN AND SHOULD EAT IT.
HERE IS MY CHALLAH RECIPE. GO FORTH, NON-JEWS, AND BAKE THE FUCK OUT OF THIS DELICIOUS BREAD. EAT IT. (AND SHARE IT BECAUSE LMAO YOU ARE ABOUT TO HAVE SO MUCH)
I LOVE IT WITH FRUIT SPREADS OF ALL KINDS. AND DIPPED IN HONEY OF COURSE.
