Inside the Jewish Bakery: Challah

by Stanley Ginsberg, Norman Berg

Overview

Unlike most breads, which are based on specific formulas and ingredients, challah is defined by its role as sanctified bread that recalls the Temple sacrifices and is the centerpiece of the Shabbes table. In Inside the Jewish Bakery: Challah, you'll find not only representative recipes for challah's infinite variations, but also comprehensive braiding instructions, as well as an engaging commentary on its place in Ashkenazic Judaism
