challah isn't made for sandwiches...

There are obviously a ton of different challah sandwiches.

Challah isn’t made for sandwiches. Its traditional purpose is for the sabbath and other Jewish holidays. It’s usually eaten on its own.

Of course you can make sandwiches with it. It’s bread after all.

But it’s not made for sandwiches.

(The recipe I use is 10% sugar.)

(It’s great for making French toast.)

Challah is one of my favorite breads. I remember my grandma buying it in the morning and giving it to us for breakfast (we were around 8) and having it with only butter. Because it was still hot, butter would start to melt a bit... Mmmmmmm I can still taste it.

I've never needed so much sugar in challah - mine is usually egg rich instead.

I use basically this recipe:

Ya I don't see the need for sugar there. I looked through my babas recipes and even her raisin challah didnt have sugar.

I bet it's tasty but not interesting to me.

No recipes have been passed down in my family but a single recipe for a weird mac-n-cheese. Share your babas recipe! :-)

A ton of sandwiches? Worldwide? That would be a ridiculously small amount, there must be many tons of sandwiches of any type.

Challah makes some amazing grilled cheese, especially if you use a pan or a panini press.

The ultimate is french toast, though, which definitely isn't a sandwich.
