Challah Bread
I am not Jewish myself but I tried this bread once and was hooked. I have been trying to replicate it and I finally found the perfect recepie.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Let yeast dissolve in warm water for about five minutes.
- 2
Whisk in honey, oil, salt, and 2 of the 3 eggs.
- 3
Add one cup of flour at a time, mixing as you go.
- 4
Turn onto floured surface, kneading until smooth and elastic. You may need to add up to a half cup more of flour.
- 5
Place in oiled bowl for one and a half hours.
- 6
Punch dough out and separate into two equal balls. Knead each ball for five minutes.
- 7
Separate each ball into three logs, about an inch thick in diameter.
- 8
Pinch the ends of the logs together and braid the dough. Pinch the ends and tuck under. You can leave it as is, or you can wrap it around like a braided circle.
- 9
Let sit for one hour.
- 10
Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush the remaining egg on top and put in oven for 20-30 minutes.
- 11
NOTE: It may taste like plain white bread when you first take it out, but if you let it sit for a little, you will get the egg bread taste.

Chocolate Chip Challah Bread Chocolate Chip Challah Bread
Like with most bread doughs, this takes a long time to make. Allow for 5 hours of prep time. *Added* In hindsight, I would have added more chocolate chips. As the bread bakes, the volume doubles, and you really can't have a high enough chocolate chip per bite ratio.

Challah Challah
I adapted this recipe from a popular recipe I found online, but that one used shortening and had too much salt.I sorta lazily skipped most of the kneading. And I think that's why the loaves didn't really have a true braided definition like you would expect from a challah. Probably should have used a bit more flour as well. But, it turned out so good that I'm not sure I want to do it the right way.

Dark Bread Dark Bread
A savory dark bread we used dipping into our chili. If you use vinegar in this recipe remember it's acidic. Acid counters yeast and hinder it's rising, but it also counters gluten and breaks it down and cause it to become very sticky and a bit harder to work with. It's a welcomed flavour to this bread. A couple of tablespoons of vinegar about 3% acidity would be nice.
