Challah



My friend Danica sent over a loaf of homemade bread a few months ago and we literally scarfed it down in less than 10 minutes. We come from a long line of Hoovers... I asked her for the recipe and when she gave it to me, I intended to make it right away. I didn't. I even took a bread class Danica held at the church and still never made any!
With the crisp new Autumn air that's been hanging about the last few days, I was feeling inspired to make soup and bread. So I pulled out Danica's Challah recipe, my new Roul'Pat, and went to work. It didn't take nearly as long as I thought it would!
I sprinkled the tops of two with Italian Seasoning and Garlic Powder and one with Poppyseeds. I think it could have used a little salt, though. All three cooked beautifully on my Silpat (with foil over the top after 10 min). Aren't they pretty?

Those look amazing! It makes my rolls look like freshman year home ec. I'll have to give it a whirl sometime. Maybe you could give me a lesson. :)
