Comment préparer Challah Bread

Pour 1 cup (240ml) warm water into a large bowl.
Add 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar to the warm water and stir until dissolved. Sprinkle 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast over the sugar water. Let stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
Add 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture and stir until a thick slurry forms.
Stir in 1 large egg, 1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil, and 1 teaspoon salt until well combined.
Gradually add 3-3 1/2 cups (375-437.5g) all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a slightly sticky dough forms. If needed, add more flour until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled large bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Gently punch down the dough. Divide the dough in half. Then divide each half into three equal pieces.
Braid each set of three dough pieces to form two loaves. Place the braided loaves on a greased baking sheet or baking stone.
Cover the loaves loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) about 15 minutes before the end of the second rise.
Brush the loaves with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water), and sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).
Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until golden brown and the loaves sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Let the loaves cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
