Recipe Reviews
Zosia from Toronto, ON
This was a fantastic challah, enriched with whole eggs, oil and sugar, that was very easy to make…..no sponges or preferments required and fermentation and proofing times of an hour or less.
The recipe made quite a bit of dough and the book gives several options for shaping it. I chose to make 2 loaves and in hindsight, should have made 3 as the dough rose tremendously in the oven to create huge loaves that were a little difficult to slice.
The crumb was very light and velvety and the bread wasn’t too rich or sweet. Next to this healthy whole wheat challah, this is my favourite challah recipe.
