Directions

0: These are 5 recipes that I formatted from http://www

1: pbs

2: org/mpt/jewishcooking/

3: Joan Nathan did a 5 part series on Jewish Cooking in America

4: Included with the recipes were actual photos of the preparation

5: In a large container dissolve the yeast and a pinch of sugar in 1 cup of the warm water (105 to 115 degrees) and let stand for 10 minutes

6: Place the flour in a large bowl

7: Add the dissolved yeast and stir with a spoon

8: Add the remaining sugar, salt, 2 eggs,* and the vegetable shortening

9: Beat about one minute and then mix by hand

10: When the dough begins to leave the side of the bowl, turn it onto a lightly floured surface to knead

11: You can also use a dough hook in a mixer to blend and knead

12: Knead for about 15 minutes or until soft, adding more water or flour as necessary

13: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning the dough over so that the entire surface is lightly greased; cover the bowl with a cloth

14: Let rise in a warm place (75 to 80 degrees) for about an hour or until the dough doubles in size

15: Punch down and divide into 2 balls

16: Divide each ball into 6 snake-like pieces and roll out, about 12 inches long

17: Place all 6 strands on a board side by side, pressing the: 6 ends together

18: Divide into 2 groups of 3 strands

19: Now braid the 6 strands

20: Take the strand from the extreme left and place it over the other 2 and into the center

21: Take the second from the right and place it over the top to the far left

22: Take the one from the far right to what is now the center of your 6 strips

23: Then take the second one from the left and put it to the far right and take the far outside on the left to what is now the center

24: Go back to the right side and take the second from the right and put it over to the far left

25: Always work with the 2 outside strands

26: Continue braiding until the dough is used up

27: When you have finished squeeze the ends together

28: Repeat with the second loaf

29: For those who want less of a challenge, divide each ball into 3 strands and braid

30: Place the outside strip over the middle one, then under the third

31: Pull the strips tight

32: Continue braiding

33: (Mr

34: Loeb braids half way through and then flips the challah, continuing to braid to the end

35: This way he gets a more even braid

36: ) When finished braiding, tuck in the ends

37: Repeat with the remaining 3 strips

38: Using a pastry brush, brush the challah with the remaining egg mixed with water and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds

39: After you have brushed the bread, dip your second finger in the egg wash and indent the top of the braids

40: Then dip your finger in the seeds and touch the indented area again to make a more striking design

41: Sprinkle a cookie sheet with cornmeal and place the loaves on top

42: Cover with a plastic sheet and let rise for 30 minutes in a warm place

43: Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven for about 30 minutes or until golden

44: *To reduce the cholesterol you can use 1 egg white and 1 whole egg instead of 2 eggs
