Peter Reinhart's Artisan Breads Every Day

Challah : page 94
I have been making this recipe for almost a year now as our weekly Shabbat Challah. This produces a light fluffy bread.I divide the dough into four loaves and freeze three. One loaf of this size is plenty for my family of five with a little leftover. I use 8 ounces of honey instead of sugar. I also need to add a good amount more flour. I found that my family likes this challah better without the optional vanilla. I sprinkle the dough with poppy and sesame seeds. Usually I just use a three braid since my five and six braids don't look as pretty. By the way, I refresh the challah that was previously frozen in the oven for about 10-15 minutes. It makes a world of difference and makes it taste fresh.
