2 challahs or one gigantic one Experience 02/2024: I've made this a few times for the microbakery, for Josh & Laura, for the soldiers. The dough stays very sticky, it's hard to roll, braid, and it doesn't keep its shape. It needs more flour, or less oil, or simply a floured counter when rolling, I'm… Continue reading Sourdough challah

Sourdough naan (not foolproof)
