Merci Sonia pour tes recettes avec toute la famille! Mes vœux de paix et de bonheur pour la Nouvelle Année Shabbat Shalom pour ce vendredi qui arrive aussi. Je prie pour la paix et pour la protection de toutes les familles et de nos soldats. Shanah Tovah and Am Yisrael Chai !🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sonya, my husband and I love you so much. You and your family are such a light in this dark world. When I watched Miriam as a little one making challah and you asked her what she was praying for and she said "to Hashem"..it brought tears to my eyes. All of you are adorable!
Hi Sonya. I’m not Jewish, but I so admire your culture. It is so beautiful that you stop everything once a week to spend time with the family and with God. What a beautiful tradition. Love watching you prepare food with your precious children. I look forward to your next video.
Hi Nikkkir you can incorporate that tradition in to your life too! God created in 6 days and the 7th day He rested. Is not a good example for us to stop? He did not need to rest but is written for us to follow that example. He knew that we need it. Do doble amount of food to have for shabat. Little by little.
My grandmother said that to make good bread you always had to have happy thoughts while kneading the bread. It must have worked her bread was always good. Blessings to you and your family.
Sonya I am so very impressed with you. You are so patient and such a wonderful mom to share this experience with your kids. I am inspired to include them in more after this.
Shalom Sonja! Isn't it great that now we have the stand mixers so no more messy hands! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Your children are absolutely adorable! My children used to love to bake with me, too. And of course before I got my stand mixer I had to knead my bread, too - and let me tell you that one loaf was almost gone while it was still warm. NOW, I promised my Optometrist some Challah bread - so I have to do that before my next appointment! Ha Ha Ha Ha. Bless you and your beautiful family, Sonja! Still working on the 4 braid Challah.
Last night I made challah for the first time following this recipe and it turned out SO GOOD! My family called it a show stopper and devoured the majority of 1 loaf with dinner. This morning for breakfast I sliced it, put a little butter on each side, then toasted them in a pan to go with breakfast and oh my goodness! What a way to start the day! Sonya thank you so much for sharing your life and recipes!
your babies are gorgeous. i can remember when my baby was little. thank you for the memories you doing things with your babies bring back to my mind. you are such a great mom.
Update on my comment about this recipe! I made it for a second time and instead of doing just braided loaves, I made garlic knots and cinnamon swirl bread and my family LOVED THEM! The cinnamon swirl bread was devoured directly after dinner. ❤ This is a WINNER recipe!
Sonya you are so talented. You absolutely are amazing. You spread cheer to my heart . I will start making bread just because of your inspiration. Thank you. Kw

Sonyachka..It is beautiful...I am so glad..saw.U and Aviva with Mishael...Hilelchik helping U...God bless U all..Sincerely Larisa (from Ella.s day care)
Hi Sonya, I want to ask you what you do with the dough for the Braha (the blessing)? What do you do with it? I also want to thank you for this video and that you share your beautiful moments from your life with us.
Hi Sonya! You may not see this but I'm curious how long the loaves last? And how often do you make a large batch like this? I normally do one a week but now I'm seeing the benefit of batch baking. Thank you and I appreciate you. Many blessings to you and your beautiful family.
Hi Sonya! I love your channel. I have a question why does the this challah recipe doesn't include eggs or honey. I did your previous recipe and it was so delicious. Can you please share how many eggs and measurement of honey I can put into this 5lb of flour recipe
What a weekend we had traying out Challah recipes and this one is our favorite! It is delicious! Had a little trouble with the dough being very sticky when we first tried to roll it out...by the 3rd loaf we decided to add a little flour as we rolled it out...any other suggestions on how to get it a little more "formed"?
Hi Sonya! I just wanted to let u know that I tried your challah recipe and it was AMAZING!! Thank you soo much for sharing this simple version! I wanted to ask you how you store it right after it's baked to keep it soft and fluffy and not getting hard (if let's say planning to eat it the next day)?
Yay!! I’m so happy you loved it. I place my completely cool challahs into a plastic bag sealed well. On Shabbat I heat it on a warming tray and it’s perfect. They also freeze really well. When I’m ready to use them, I defrost the challah. Wrap in foil and heat on a warming tray or oven. Comes out super fresh.
I love your channel! How long do you knead your dough for before letting it rest? Do you always knead by hand in the bowl when you make challah with a 5lb. bag of flour? Thank you!
Hi Amanda! Tysm for watching. I knead the dough until it’s smooth and everything is incorporated~10 Minutes. I recently got a kenwood mixer, and now make my Challah in there. So much easier.
Hi Sonya, do you choose not to make egg challah for texture or taste or family sensitivity? I am curious to know what the difference is between such challahs.
Hi, I use this recipe specifically because it is so quick and simple to make, especially while being a busy mom. It doesn’t sacrifice the taste as it comes out perfectly soft and delicious.
Hi what language so you speak and where are you from. I am Jewish and make challah using half bread flour and half all purpose. Then I oil my hands to need and braid. I add oil before flour. I use a kitchen aid mixer to mix the water and yeast that already rose after adding it together with sugar then I add eggs After mixing I add oil the. Flour. I don't do 5 pounds of flour. I do 2 cups of bread flour and 2 cups of all purpose flour. I wonder why one would do 5 pounds of flour.
Nice video. Nice to see the kids involved. Why do you not use eggs in the recipe? Do you prefer “water challah,” or is it for religious reasons? Thanks.
Hi Sonya! I just tried your challah recipe and I must have done something wrong. It came out really hard on the top, almost like regular bread. What did I do wrong?
@@SonyasPrep thank you for your reply. I realized that you have a few versions of the challah recipes. I wanted to use leftover dough for rugelach and your video with the rugelach had the egg challah recipe. I'll just use the egg free recipe for the rugelach. Lovely videos.
@@SonyasPrep me too I love your channel! Thank you for sharing your life and beautiful recipes. I am going to try to bake Hala for my first Rosh Hashanah. Wish me luck 🍀
The children are very distracting . Maybe you should make this video went they are sleeping or went they are playing in another room. They are beautiful .
Marie! This was beautiful, and real... And thats how kids are.. I have 3 so far.. And wow she handled it so well .. well done mamma ..read recipe in the description at the bottom....

What beautiful children, what a blessing to have you as their mother. You’re so patient and loving.

I am so grateful for Shabbat- the 1 day where everything goes away and we just focus on the important things in our lives- family.

This is the real life of a mother fixing food. We get used to. And then we miss it.

Sonia hi, what are you doing with the dough that you take out and put in the aluminium foil? The blessing sounds amazing. Bless you all.

Ohh hi!! Thank you so much for watching ❤️
Nice, you speak Russian too 🥰 I look very different though (pale, green eyes). I'm of Polish "origin" (from before the War).
Amazing
priceless.
Thank you! I was actually looking for a challah recipe.
Hi Sonya, I want to ask you what you do with the dough for the Braha (the blessing)? What do you do with it? I also want to thank you for this video and that you share your beautiful moments from your life with us.
Challah looks so yummy! My kids are bigger now and I still wouldn't be able to pull that off as well as you did with such little ones!
Sonya it’s a very cute video and beautiful Challahs!!! Good job!!! 👌
Thank you so much
Hi Sonya!

I normally do one a week but now I'm seeing the benefit of batch baking.
Thank you and I appreciate you. Many blessings to you and your beautiful family.
Hi Sharon, the loaves last for over a week. I freeze them and take out as I need. ❤️

@@SonyasPrep thank you so much will try!
Thank you for sharing. Can I substitute honey for the sugar? Would the quantity be the same?
Yes you can I would use equal amounts
God bless you its too hard to work with all these young kids.....offffff hard life
I love your channel! How long do you knead your dough for before letting it rest? Do you always knead by hand in the bowl when you make challah with a 5lb. bag of flour? Thank you!
Hi Amanda! Tysm for watching.

I recently got a kenwood mixer, and now make my Challah in there. So much easier.
I want this book
I would like to know the blessing when you prepare Chalah.
II dont have the patience anymore..lol, but yours looks amazing
Thank you ❤️
@@SonyasPrep 👍🏾👍🏾😁keep cookin`momma
Hello! Such a precious video! When you put the challah into the oven to rise, did you have it on to a temp or off? Thanks! New subbie here!
Hi, thank you so much for watching and subscribing! The oven was off when rising.

Great question! We do 5 lbs because there is a specific blessing that is recited when making that amount specifically.
Nice video. Nice to see the kids involved. Why do you not use eggs in the recipe? Do you prefer “water challah,” or is it for religious reasons? Thanks.
WhichOrThat hi I prefer water challah, and I find this recipe to be the quickest than the egg 1.
Thanks for sharing, looks great. Can I add raisins inside?
Karim Gomez I’m sure it will be delicious with the raisins
Hi Sonya! I just tried your challah recipe and I must have done something wrong. It came out really hard on the top, almost like regular bread. What did I do wrong?
Do you have two ovens and doubles of other things?

It’s egg free

Yes definitely

I love your channel! Thank you for sharing your life and beautiful recipes. I am going to try to bake Hala for my first Rosh Hashanah. Wish me luck 🍀
Beautiful challah, but not quite egg-free...
👏👏👏👌🇨🇭😊🙏🏻
The children are very distracting . Maybe you should make this video went they are sleeping or went they are playing in another room. They are beautiful .
I find the children’s crying and shouting distracting. Surely you could have prepared this recipe when they were not in the room.
No I couldn't Marg, thats life being a Mommy and I wanted it to be translated here. Feel free not to watch...
