Challah in a Hurry image

Made with quick-rise yeast, this is a sweeter, richer challah that lends itself especially well to Rosh Hashanah or other holiday uses. It is quicker and easier than a standard double-rise recipe, so it's great for those afternoons when you're in a challah of a hurry. Challah was meant to be torn and not sliced. B'tayevon!

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 cup margarine, melted
¾ cup white sugar
3 egg, beaten
4 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
7 ½ cups bread flour
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, blend together warm water, melted margarine, sugar, and 3 beaten eggs
  • In a large bowl, mix together yeast, salt, and 7 cups of the flour. Gradually stir in liquid ingredients, and mix until dough holds together.
  • Knead dough on a floured surface with remaining flour until smooth.
  • Split the dough into 2 large pieces. Split the 2 large pieces into 3 pieces each. Roll each third into a rope 3/4 inch thick and braid 3 strands together. Repeat. Place shaped dough onto greased cookie sheets. Brush dough with remaining beaten egg. Add poppy or sesame seeds, if desired. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
  • Bake in a preheated 325 degree F(165 degrees C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes.

This challah is a bit too dry for my taste, but it's still very good. I think it would be perfect for toast or sandwiches.

This challah is a bit denser than I'm used to, but it's still very good. I think it would be perfect for French toast or bread pudding.
