Maggie Glezer Challah
I finally found time to make Maggie Glezer's levain challah, the taste is amazing, rich, creamy and seems the longer it sits the sweeter it becomes. I didn't get the crumb I had tried to achieve but this is the first attempt. The dough was easy to work with and it worked great with my motherdough levain. It has a very unique taste which I think may be a result of the sourdough and the honey.
This has to be my favorite for a natural levain Challah. The yeasted version is PR's Challah in Crust & Crumb.
