I would also like to know the name and model of the mixer being used as most mixers can't cope with the amount of dough in your recipe

Thank you for your kind comments.
Michael, I learned from a woman that teaches Challah making in Jerusalem called the Challah Lady that the bracha is to be said before the rise. That is why I do it that way.
Bracha, the hand washing and the reciting HaMotzi were edited out of the final cut just to shorten the video. I also didn't show birkat hamazon after eating for the same reason.
Shifra, I am so happy the video was helpful.

Watching her do the dough just gave me the reason why mine always comes out flat! It finally made click!
Thank you!

beautiful demo including the bracha for taking challah but then at the end is tasting - where's the washing hands and motzi?
|
I take the challah after the first rise, since this is the first point at which the dough can be baked into bread. Do you have a feeling about which is the more appropriate time to do so?
(Also, just as an aside, after my main mixer broke, I found that kneading my dough by hand to be a richer, more fulfilling experience. Tiring, but fulfilling!)

I talk to my yeast and dough , too! One thing I add at the end of my blessing is, " May it be as if I brought this to your Holy Temple in Jerusalem..."

Plastic trash bags for food storage

This is a great "how to" video. The set designer produced a lovely decorated tree in the background for the "Challah Day" season. Is it an xmas tree or a Chanukah bush?

HI!
I use the Bosch mixer, it is actually an old model, so I would recommend you to get the newer one. You will love it because it holds 15 plus cups of flour. I use it to make tons of cookies too!
|
Can you tell me the name of the mixer being used and/or model? I would like to purchase one......Thanks!
