Take a deep deep breath, can you smell it? Jackie is baking again!!! YAHOO, she is the kitchen whiz and I love it!!
The recipe is yummy and looks awesome too.
Challah bread
1 tbsp. Dry yeast
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp. Butter
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
2 1/4 to 2 1/2 cup flour ( flour is an estimate)
1 egg
Topping:You will need to do this on day two:
1 egg yolk mixed with a little water
1 tsp. Poppy seed (optional)
Soften yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. Combine milk, butter, sugar, and salt until the sugar dissolves. Stir in 1 cup flour. Beat well. Add egg beat well. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on a floured surface until smooth and elastic. Bag in a zip lock and put in fridge.
Day two:
Divide dough into thirds. Roll each third into a rope: braid strands and secure ends. Place on a greased cookie sheet and let rise until doubled in size. Brush with egg yolk and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake ate 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
