Every Shabbat we eat challah. Did you ever notice the shape? Most of our challot are braided and are long like a rectangle. On Rosh Hashsana, our challot are circular to symbolize the circle of life and the start of a new year. We read the book How The Rosh Hashana Challahs Became Round, by Sylvia Epstein and decided to bake our very own circle challot for Rosh Hashana. We measured, poured, kneaded and rolled long snakes to create our circular challot. We hope you enjoy eating them as much as we enjoyed making them!
