How do people make that type of challah?

That challah is filling but not sweet, it’s salty but flavorful. The crust is golden yellow and CRUNCHY. Anybody know what I’m talking about? How do you make it crunchy?

Thanks!!

I think you're talking about "water challah" type recipe. Something like this?

I think you'd like Rebbetzin Kanievsky's recipe from the book written by her daughter.

DOUGH
6 1/3 cups (1 1/2 liters) warm water- divided

6 1/2 - 6 3/4 pounds (3 kilo) flour

PM PinkFridge. I believe she skips the sugar and uses less than 1 cup honey since she likes it not as sweet.

I recently switched to making the challah recipe in Bais Yaakov Cookbook II p 24, entitled "challah." If you want a less-sweet challah, you can cut the sugar, but the texture is light and fluffy. The baking method, which calls for baking it at 450 for 10 minutes, and 400 for 30 minutes, makes an amazing crunchy golden crust. I use real challah pans, which also helps it crisp, and they slide right out because of the the high baking temperature.

Can you please post the recipe?

Also, you don't grease the pans at all and it still lies right out? Are they non stick pans? (I have real pans but they're definitely not non stick!)
