How to Braid

• Divide your dough into the number of strands you’ll need, making sure each portion is equal in volume. For example, if you’re making a three strand challah, divide your dough into three equal portions. Shaping them out into equal (ish) strands
• For those of you who know how to braid hair, this should come naturally to you. Pinch the 3 strands together at one end. Fan out the 3 strands. Left over center, (left now becomes center) right over center and continue until you've reached the end.
• Pinch the three strands together at the end.

Rolls

• Use your challah dough to make some pretty and delicious challah dinner rolls! Roll your dough into several small equal-sized strands that are about 9 inches long. For each strand, start by tying a knot in the dough.
• Pinch the two loose ends together to create a roll shape.
