Show and Tell 09/16/09

It’s been a while since I’ve done a show and tell (or a post altogether for that matter). I just needed a little inspiration.
I made challah for the holidays today. Along with the usual round ones for Rosh Hashanah, this year I decided to get a little creative with a few of them. This cookbook has an interesting recipe called “Challah Napkin Rings”. Essentially the Challah serves as a napkin ring.
A relative of mine made them years ago and I decided to give it a go. It’s quite an arts and crafts project in itself but the results are beautiful.


See what others are showing here.


My mouth is watering
They’re beautiful! What a great idea because then everyone has their challah right at their place setting.
Mmmm challah! And the napkin ring idea is awesome!
They look so yummy and so beautiful…almost too beautiful to eat!
They Look Delicious and Perfect. Yum.
Oh gosh that looks yummy!

Shana Tova!
i really should NOT read these before eating breakfast anymore… looks delish!
Those look delicious! And functional too
How do you prepare – I know around roll – do you put foil and then parchment – how do you get parchment to stay around the roll in the oven – can’t remember how it’s done

Robin – you use a paper towel roll, wrap twice in silver foil, then once in parchment paper and tie it all with a small strip of foil. Tape won’t work in the oven.
Thank you – committed to making them for 25 on Friday since I had been shown once and now I forgot what to do – best temp and time – I’m going to cheat and use predone challah dough – egg yolk glaze only or any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated – todah rabah
I bake them at 350 (preheated) for 25-30 minutes. If your using predone, you should probably follow the suggestions on the box although maybe a little less time since they are small. Good luck.
Thank you so much for your help – made them tonight for tomorrow and they look great
Have a great weekend

OK. I have songs in my head today. Because all I can think here is from Candyman (WIlly Wonk):
You can even eat the dishes!
