Kindergarten/Kitah Gan – Challah Links

Posted on November 10, 2015

Great to see you Sunday, to talk about shabbat and rituals, and to make challah covers and challah!  Hope the challah was delicious or that it will be when defrosted, glazed and baked.  Here are some photos posted on the TI Facebook group.  Here is the challah recipe we use at home along with teachings from master baker Rabbi Jonathan Rubenstein.  Am also passing along (below) some Youtube links from Rabbi Shira on challah braiding techniques.
The next couple family Friday night dinners at TI are on December 11 (Hanukkah theme) and January 8 (breakfast for dinner)– hope you can come to one or both!

Here are the video links:
