Challah bread is a type of bread eaten by Jews on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. The early Harry bread did not use butter and milk to make it. Later, people who liked the bread for non-religious reasons changed the ingredients and flavor. The bread with eggs and butter has a more detailed structure and obvious softness. The eggs and milk also enhance the aroma of the bread. The aroma that comes out when it is baked is very attractive. If you want to try the original flavor, you can use olive oil instead of butter and milk with water.
It is recommended to use a 9-inch or 10-inch cast iron pan as the mold for this bread. If not, you can use a metal cake mold or a pie pan. The bottom of the metal mold is heated evenly, and the color of the bottom is more beautiful. Mold. "
