most amazing challah

Ingredients

Servings: 4
4 (.25 ounce) packages quick-rise yeast
4 cups warm water (110 degrees f/45 degrees c)
2 tablespoons salt
3/4 cup white sugar
1 cup pareve margarine, melted
4 eggs
12 cups bread flour, or as needed
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sesame seeds, divided

Recipe

Preparation Time:

Cook Time:

grease baking sheets, or line them with parchment paper and set aside.
cut the bread dough into 4 equal-sized pieces (or 2 pieces to make 2 large loaves). cut each piece into thirds for 3-strand braided loaves. working on a floured surface, roll the small dough pieces into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends. pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. starting with the strand to the right, move it to the left over the middle strand (that strand becomes the new middle strand.) take the strand farthest to the left, and move it over the new middle strand. continue braiding, alternating sides each time, until the loaf is braided, and pinch the ends together and fold them underneath for a neat look. repeat for the remaining loaves.
