In a large mixing bowl place all the ingredients except the flour, slowly add the flour till the dough has a firm consistency, it must not be sticky.
Let the dough rise in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a cloth for 2 hours.
When the dough has risen take Challah (break off a small piece, make the Brachah and wrap in a piece of paper and throw away or burn)
Divide the dough into 6. Divide each portion again into 3 and plait. Brush with the yellow of an egg mixed with a bit of water. Sprinkle poppy seeds or sesame seeds on top and bake in a 200Âº oven for about 35 to 40 minutes. The challah is baked when you tap it with a knife and it sounds hollow.
