I just want to tell you that I’ve used your challah recipe several times since discovering it, and it works beautifully! Thank you for posting it, and the video is helpful as well!

In reply to Jan S. Hi Jan- I totally understand your bread frustrations. I share them. Here in Israel, I don't have a choice of the type of wheat--I just buy whatever comes in a bag at the supermarket. It seems to be something like a hard white, except the gluten content must be low here because I have a tough time getting it to rise. And I can't find gluten here to add. So I just allow for extra long rising time and lots of kneading. For oil, I used to use olive oil, but have switched to whatever vegetable oil we have; usually sunflower.

Hi Dr Kim,
I just discovered your website due to a post from your hubby on WellWithU. I love it!!! What kind of wheat grain do you use? Hard Red, Hard White, or Soft White? Also, what kind of oil? I’m having trouble making homemade bread that doesn’t end up in the garbage…the entire loaf so want to make sure of every detail.
Thanks!

Hi Nancy,
I used to try to burn it–I put it in the oven at a high temp till it was quite crispy. But it was very messy and stank up the house, so I abandoned that idea. Now I hold it and pray, thanking God for His gifts and provision and giving me the ability to make the bread. And then I throw it in the garbage can 🙂

Hi Dr. Kim,

I’m just curious but what do you do when you offer the bread?

Thank you,
Nancy
