Baking 20 challahs for a wedding was a special and meaningful experience and working with a home oven made it even more of a precise and thoughtful process.
Unlike a commercial bakery, a home oven requires baking in multiple rounds, which means every batch has to be carefully timed and managed.
Each challah goes through exact proofing stages to maintain the dough’s volume and texture, while I rotate between shaping, rising, and baking.
While one batch is in the oven, another is proofing and the next is being prepared, creating a constant flow that demands focus and attention to detail.
Every challah is handmade and baked in small batches, and this process is what ensures they come out soft, airy, and perfectly golden.
Moments like this remind me why I love what I do bringing fresh, homemade bread into meaningful celebrations.
