Thanksgiving Interview Challah

A reporter from the Fall River Herald News came today to write about the book. I was going to make the dough for her, but Alicia (my sweetie) suggested that I have a dough ready to braid. This was a rush job, but turned out to be a good idea, since the photographer wanted to shoot a photo of the finished bread. The dough was mixed at 8 am, and stuck into a turned-off 170 degree oven to rise.

At about 10 am, I pulled it out and did a quick braid. The photographer was in a rush, so we didn't wait for a second rising. (AAAAAH!) Just painted it and slammed it into the oven.

It turned out pretty good -- not the prettiest, but still tasty.
