I Love the “How to braid a round challoh” video tutorial.
Our custom is not to make any knots or braiding when making round challos for Rosh Hashonah. However, I will be utilizing these techniques when making challos during the year.
Thank you for this wonderful website.
What an interesting custom! Thanks for sharing.

The dough looks amazing! would you be able to post the recipe?
Many thanks in advance!!
Thank you! The challah dough is from “Our Table” cookbook on page 182.
This is a great tutorial! I’m going to try this out with my daughter.
My challah came out so good. Thank you. So excited for Yom Tov. What was the song you were playing on repeat the whole time?
