I worked as the after-school daycare coordinator at a Jewish elementary school when I was in college. The best part about that job was the freshly delivered challah bread that I got to bring home every Friday! I fell in love with the crispy exterior and the tender egg bread inside.
To braid the challah, lay out three ropes of dough, take the dough on the far left and go over the middle dough and under the dough on the right.
Repeated each time using the dough on the far left until you come to the end of the bread dough. Tuck the ends under to give the bread a finished look on the ends.
