6 lbs challa flour
4 eggs
4 scant Tbs salt
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C oil
5 Tb dry yeast or 4 oz. fresh
6 C water (at correct temp)

    I put more then 3/4 of the flour in the Bosch bowl with all the ingredients except for the salt and oil
    mix till it forms a dough
    mix the salt & rest of flour & add to bowl
    mix till fully incorporated
    add oil & mix 3-4 min


    put a tiny bit of oil on the dough & give the mixer a quick whirl. this makes it easy to just dump the dough out.
    transfer the dough to a greased garbage bag. twist top closed and let rise 1 hour
    braid challas, put into floured or greased pans & let rise 1 hour - preheat oven to 350
    brush with egg (when risen)
    put challas in oven and raise to 375-400 for 15 minutes (for a crisp crust)
    lower to 350 after 15 min or when crust is golden and bake another 35-45 min.
    remove from pans & lay on sides to cool
