For more great Instant Pot recipes, please visit InstantPotEasy.com
Braiding a challah whether it’s three strand, four strand, or even six strand is truly the only part in the entire recipe that’s slightly challenging. The rest of it is …
It is Hallah not Challah
I like to use Challah for crab cakes to add moisture and richness to those decadent little thangs!
Does anyone dip their challah in grape juice? I swear it’s so good
When you watch this two years later and see him mix the yeast with a fork. So much disappointment of not seeing some whiiiiiiiiskey buiiisssssness
Perfect 🙂
2 eggs plus 4 yolks, isn't it too much??
as a jew when he cut the challah i almost screamed
growing up in Buffalo NY I ate challah bread almost all the time and I'd get in trouble for tearing off the tops of the braids
I made this and two other of your recipes during lockdown here in Sydney and sent the photos to your Insta DM's 😀 Hopefully you will see it and will approve haha
I've been waiting for this video with braided bread.
How is the answer to that 1st question not a Rapunzel sandwich?
Hi Joshua, good evening from Australia, I finally got the challah right, I made rolls from your recipe and used a bread machine from your recipe. They turned out perfect. Thank you.
Tried making challah today. My dough turned to soup for some reason. 🙁
Perfect for Passover… well… not really…
Ugly ass bread.
My family has had a challah recipe dating back quite a few generations. I’ve always loved to make it, but after trying your recipe, I must say that I prefer yours, and I guarantee that it’s the extra egg yolks. I think that you did everything correct, and in the style of a traditional challah. However, if I had to point out one thing, it would be the fact that you cut your challah bread in the middle. Why? But, that incredibly small thing aside, you have a great recipe here, and one that I will be using in the future.
What can i put in challah? God willing of course
Can this recipe be halved for a smaller loaf?
Can’t braid bread to save my silly life.
Hi Joshua, I am trying out this recipe. My second attempt as the first lot of yeast was dead. One steep learning curve.
Dear Joshua ,i made this ,it was amazing ,looked and smelt heavenly ,however it was a little dry .I am thinking next time to cook for 30 mins and put a owl of water in the oven to create steam .What are your thoughts ,cheers and thanks Joany
Shabbat Shalom! In the process of making this right now…Every recipe from Joshua Weismann I have tried has always come out absolutely incredible!
I have to make 6 every shabbat. I hope i get the right measurements. Thank you for sharing. 🥰

Don't have a stand mixer. Can I knead it with a hand mixer with a double dough hook attachment??
You rip challah in the bulges, you never cut challah, you rip pieces of of it. And you stress the ch, like your about to sneeze
Facts: if the color wasnt too dark you can make a giant sub sandwich
We dont eat eggs, what can substitute eggs?
Why tf would you cut it? Just rip the strands off
We swiss people call this a "Zopf" or "Butterzopf"
Is challah bread supposed to be dense? And heavy? I tried making some for the first time and I feel like I may have overworked it bc it is a little dense😅
Dough schlong at 4:56 ?
You say Hallah but it’s called חלה
A B D C between DCB between AC between DD then ABBCCDACACD
I tried this and oh boy this was the best thing ever!!!!
Also I recommend adding the amount of salt he is adding because I reduced it and it was less salty but such a great recipe!!
Trust me, it's worth the waiting^.^
Jewish bread making the best french toast? Get the fuck out of Palestine and move back to Europe.
he was talking so slow i had to speed the video up 25%
Troubleshooting: I'm attempting this bread today, but something seems wrong about the dough: it won't stick to itself. So when I fold it over and try to roll out the braids, they keep falling apart. And when I finally got them close enough, the ends won't stick together (which makes the braiding very difficult). Can anyone help diagnose what might have happened in the dough-making process? Too much flour? Too many eggs? Too much oil in the bowl for the first and second proof? Something else? (The yeast did activate and there are some small gas bubbles forming.)
U should use guitar more often in the b roll
It’s beautiful? I would feel bad if I ate it.
From Far left to the far right then from far right to the far left! That's how people are messed up in the whole world.
Zopf
My mom used to make what we called braided egg braid.
This seems to be the same recipe. So excited to make it
Has anyone seen your monkey bread recipe? It's missing, if you see it JW please tell him I'm looking for him

This is currently in the oven and my house smells fucking amazing! Another great recipe, thanks for sharing 😊

100% it makes the best french toast …My dad used to make it for us on Saturdays with the leftover challah from Friday night
