Hi! Challah is a special bread that’s used in lots of different ways. In Jewish traditions, it’s eaten on special days and sometimes with honey for sweetness. People also love making French toast, bread pudding, or sandwiches with it. No matter how you use it, challah always makes a dish taste extra good!

You have to try challah as pain perdu! Seriously, it’s one of the best ways to enjoy this bread in France. The way it soaks up the custard and turns golden and crispy pure magic. I make it every chance I get, and it’s always a hit. Have you tried it yet? If not, you’re going to love it!

In some European countries, challah is used in puddings and desserts, often with fruit or custard. In America, it is used for sandwiches; it serves as a slightly sweet and soft alternative to other breads.
