JEWISH EGG BREAD
Challah, meaning “offering” in Hebrew, is a traditional Jewish egg bread that, as far
as I am concerned, has no peer. It is served with every Sabbath meal and on Jewish
holidays. This nondairy version can be baked inside the machine, or the dough can be
removed and shaped into a traditional braid or coil and then baked in the oven (see
Technique: Jewish Egg Braid or Coil).
