Challah in the Bread Machine1 egg and then fill to 1 1/4 cups water2 egg yolks 1/4 cup soft butter 1/2 tsp vanilla 4 cups bread flour 2 tbsp sugar 2 tsp salt 2 tsp yeast 1 tsp poppy seeds Put all ingredients in as listed. Place machine on regular bread cycle for completed loaf. One beaten egg in a separate bowl for glossing dough.(Only if using the braid option) Braid Option: Place machine on dough cycle and then remove after complete to floured linen. Cut dough in half and set half aside, makes two braids. Take one half and divide into 3 parts make each section into a 12-15" 'snake'.

Let it double. Glaze with egg and sprinkle lightly with poppy seeds. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes or until desired color. Latkes3-4 large potatoes1 large onion 2 eggs 1/2 cup flour 2 tsp % 2B salt pepper butter and oil for frying sour cream and or applesauce Grate and drain potatoes, mashing to get liquid out. Grate onion and combine with potatoes in large bowl. Beat eggs and add to potatoes and onion. Add salt to taste and pepper. Stir in flour. Cook on electric skillet heated to 400 degrees. I use a mixture of butter and oil to fry them so the butter doesn't burn at the high temperature. Cook till brown, only turning once. Serve with lots of sour cream and or applesauce. I always keep extra potatoes ready because never do I fix enough the first time. :-) Lamb ChopsUse Kosher chops or Kasher properly(See Morton's instructions on Kosher Salt box)
