Hara is a braided bread for the Jewish Sabbath and a celebration bread in Europe, symbolizing God's mercy and generosity. In traditional Jewish society, "harvesting" is seen as one of many activities. It is believed that if the extra eggs are not dropped before the Jewish Sabbath, it will be difficult to harvest new eggs, and the use of eggs in bread may be a way to use the extra eggs.
The trick to making an attractive, eye-catching Hara is to braid it so that the two ends of the bread will form a cone and the middle will swell. Here, I use the six-strand braid weaving method.


material:
Main dough: 255g high-gluten flour, 28g fine sugar, 3g salt, 3g yeast, 1 egg, 1 egg yolk, 90g water, 14g butter
Surface decoration: appropriate amount of protein, appropriate amount of white sesame

Tips:

1. The dough for making this bread should not be too wet, otherwise the braids will not be easy to form;
2. Although the 6-strand braid looks complicated, in fact, as long as you remember the formula, weaving it is still very simple. Just be patient and weave it nicely. Remember, every time you make a piece of dough, you still follow the sequence number from 1 to 6 from left to right, regardless of the previous number of the dough;
3. If the braid is really not good, you can braid one large braid and one small two three-strand braids. The weight of the big braid is twice that of the small braid, and then put the small braid on the center of the big braid;
