Challah bread is a traditional Jewish bread often enjoyed during Shabbat and holidays. This soft, fluffy loaf is braided and typically made with simple ingredients like flour, water, eggs, sugar, yeast, and a touch of salt. Some variations include honey for sweetness or toppings like sesame or poppy seeds. Its enriched dough gives it a slightly sweet, tender texture. While challah is a good source of energy due to its carbohydrates, it can be high in calories and sugar depending on the recipe. The eggs provide some protein, but the bread is generally low in fiber compared to whole-grain options. Moderation is key, and pairing it with nutrient-rich sides can make it a balanced part of a meal. Whether enjoyed plain, toasted, or as a base for French toast, challah is a beloved staple with rich cultural significance.
