We Had a Challah-Day!

September 22, 2019 by Debbi Ballard Leave a Comment

It was SUCH a wonderful day today, baking challah with my besties!

This morning, Melissa Cravitz Ferber felt a sore throat coming on so she opted in by FACETIME, and still made some rockin’ challah with us!

Making challah is a mitzvah. The special part about it is infusing the challah while you’re kneading it with your prayers – whether it is prayers of gratitude or refuah shelema (healing) or simply anything else you or someone else needs. When you send your love to the challah, it is sent into the world, and I find it to be so comforting and special.

Today I used a recipe from Tessasblog.com, and the link is below. 

I liked this recipe and wanted to try it because it called for more eggs than most recipes, and I got the exact result I wanted to.

They were big and fluffy! We even made an awesome dipping sauce (also on that blog page) and now we all have challah-babies!

SO fun!

Who wants to be part of the next CDB Challah-bake?

Good, Fluffy Challah (braided egg bread)
