I am a Jewish woman and I never thought of making the dough in a loaf pan! Great for sandwiches. Why didn't I or we think of that? Maybe it is because we are Reformed Jews and would not have a problem eating challah any time of the week. However, the Orthodox and even Conservative Jews may think it is special for the Sabbath. I'm not sure, but I surely am going to make it in a loaf pan. Also, one of the things I find so special about your videos is that you give alternatives such as kneading by hand or by a dough hook. Some of us of a certain age and 'issues' cannot knead by hand anymore, so I'm always grateful for my Kitchen Aid and that dough hook. You're terrific! I'm so glad I found you!

Kevin, I don’t mind that your videos are lengthy. I enjoy watching and learning and love all your recipes, gardening and household tips. You’re a great teacher. Also your voice is soothing and very relaxing. Thanks for sharing!😋👍

Absolutely love your videos on baking. Can’t go wrong with your instructions on baking. Thank You Kevin 🥖🏆

You are the only person to explain how to braid in a simple to understand way....over, under, over, under.....

Although his videos are not the best done technically with all the camera adjustments, the way he gently explains things and his nice smile make him one of the most pleasant and kind looking person on KZfaq. I certainly want to try his recipes.

I usually do not comment on people's KZfaq videos. However Mr. Kevin Lee Jacobs you won my vote. Not only are you a gracious and warm host you are also a great baker. I am going to try making your bread and your hamburger buns. Thanks so much.

Hi Kevin, i just thought i would let you know that i have been trying videos for Challah on KZfaq with terrible results. With much frustration i decided to try yours. BY FAR the best result! It was delicious! Thank you for giving me my sanity back!😂

I made your challah bread and It came out beautifully. Your instructions and guidance are spot on. I have failed with so many other bread recipes. I only look to you for my bread recipes. I make your basic white bread very very often. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

You're a great teacher ! You show as many details as possible. You share, the more you share the more fans you'll have following !

Kevin that was the BEST explanation on how to braid challah!! You’re the master teacher!

Dear Kevin.. you know, sometimes you find a KZfaq Channel “by accident” I found your channel. The one I have been watching right now is two years old. I used to bake a lot, but due to life circumstances, I haven’t for some years now. However you inspire me to start baking again. Thank you. I enjoy all of your videos. Making dinner, flower arrangements ect. It is so wonderful in a cold world. Take good care 🌺

That is the best looking challa bread I have ever seen, I can tell it will be light to eat because you did not over do the flour! Kevin you make it so easy thank you for the recipe!

Thank you VERY much for this recipe AND unlocking the secret of HOW TO MAKE THE BRAIDS! Oh , you wouldn’t believe the difficulty I had trying to follow directions I found elsewhere.. I even made sketches to remember. I think there were more than 4 ropes involved, I had a good laugh at myself seeing how easy your method is. Oh for joy!! Now i can made this to impress my family for the holidays. 💕🌲

I like that this recipe was put together in one bowl and was very simple. Thank you for the clear instructions for braiding the 4 strands. I was beginning to get discouraged as I couldn't seem to follow the directions of other videos. You didn't shift the view or cut away and your "mantra" made it easy to remember. The bread came out beautifully.

It is such a pleasure to spend time with you, thank you

Good lord it’s amazing! If I made bread like that I would be big as a house!

These videos are very soothing and relaxing. Those breads are gorgeous!

That bread loaf looks absolutely fantastic, wow how wonderful.

Your four braid is so easy to follow. Also have a six braid easy to follow. Over two, under one and over two. Always starts on the right until done. Also made chocolate dough and plain and use one of each color to braid. It's so beautiful.

I absolutely enjoyed watching and learning from you how to make challah. Very clear and concise as well as captivating. Thankyou for taking the time. From Innisfil, Ontario, Canada. 🙂❤

I was looking for videos on how to make and braid Easter paska, and I found your video. I am so glad I did, You are a good teacher, very articulate, patiently explaining what you are doing. Good use of camera as you work. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Thanks

Kevin, that bread looks so good. Reminds me of when I would have it for Easter. My Dad is Ukrainian and he would always buy a loaf from the Polish bakery along with kielbasa for a Ukrainian Easter breakfast.

Love your video and the way you explain every measurement perfect I will definitely give this recipe a try thank you so much and love the camera work

Just subscribed - I need a good challah recipe. I like when you said "hold on - don't go away"

Thanks zkevin thumbs up from NYC

Great job beautiful

This bread is so beautiful. Saw another post but boy it seemed very difficult, no way I could follow. You explained it so well - over, under the second..... Tnk u very much. Now I can make this beautiful, soft bread.

Continuing, I will make them today.

Hey Kevin! My parents and I loved this video

You are awesome! Thank you for the video. I like wet dough, it makes the bread much softer. I am looking into different way to make this beautiful bread, I think I’ll try yours. Oh thank you for the tips too. Rise twice and spray on the plastic before cover the dough. Excellent! Thank you again for sharing.

That is the best four strand instruction i have seen. Thank you
