Description

Unlike the eggy challahs of the Ashkenazi Jews of Eastern Europe, this version comes from the Sephardic Jews of the Mediterranean, who flavored their challahs with caraway and anise. This recipe from Jessamyn Waldman Rodriguez, founder of Hot Bread Kitchen, twists the dough rather than braids it, yielding a round, turban-shaped loaf.
