How to make a Braid "Butterzopf" or Challah

Step 5 Last words

The difference between a Swiss "Zopf" and a Challah:

Sorry for the video, that is placed as a file. I didn't receive my confirmation mail from youtube in time.
I will add the youtube version later, hopefully with a higher resolution.
I hope you try it out and enjoy it.
When you're interested in baking, see my other instructable.

Challah is a traditional jewish bread, used for bringing in the Sabbath celebration. I would not say it has anything to do with Arab culture.
