- Let this mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until bubbly.
- Add in remainder of ingredients.
- Mix by hand or by stand mixer with dough hook attachment until dough forms a smooth ball (if the dough feels too sticky, add in additional flour one tbsp at a time).

- After dough doubles in size (about an hour and a half later), split dough into two even pieces.
- Take each piece and split again into 3 pieces each (you should now have 6 pieces).
- Roll each piece into long strands of equal length, about 12 inches long.
- Braid 3 strands together. Repeat for other pieces.
- Place each braided loaf on a parchment paper covered baking sheet and cover again for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees after you cover dough.
- Whisky remaining egg and, using a pastry brush (or a piece of paper towel balled up), gently brush egg wash over each challah.
- Bake for about 30 minutes or until challah is cooked through.
