The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, Challah

Challah bread is my absolute favorite bread bake.   I give thanks to:  Nicole, for offering this baking challenge(www.pinchmysalt.com), and to Peter Reinhart (www.PeterReinhart.typepad.com),  for such an ethereal journey of all things, flour and egg.

 

How do I love thee? 

…..Let me count the ways…..

  1. Sheryl, thanks for the compliment. I am a bit slow on learning anything beyond a three strand, but maybe before my unborn grandchildren graduate college I’ll say otherwise. ;)

    Tammy, you be so kind! ty :)

    AnneMarie, awe shucks, you got me blushing! ;)

    Salt, lol..I am so dense. I live in TX and failed to even ‘notice’ the horseshoe. I must have been begging for luck, on this bake, somewhere in the recesses of my gray matter. ;)

    zainab, thanks for enjoying the handiwork. It’s fun to braid. :)

  9. Holy Cow! Absolutely stunning. What a way to “bring up the rear!” Although I doubt you’re the last challenger to make the Challah . . .
