Challahs
Challahs are traditional Jewish braided breads typically eaten on Shabbat and holidays. They are made with eggs, sugar, flour, water, and yeast, giving them a slightly sweet taste and soft texture. Challahs are often braided into intricate designs, with three, four, or six strands being the most common. The bread is usually brushed with egg wash before baking, giving it a shiny, golden crust. Challahs are a symbol of celebration and are often enjoyed with butter or honey.
