WATER CHALLAH
According to our family's Sephardi custom, we cannot make 'HaMotzi' on anything that contains more than a minimal amount of sugar or any eggs. (Although you may use an egg wash or honey or other sweet additions on the outside). When I have to bake Challah this is what I do. For Rosh Hashannah our tradition is use anise seeds instead of extra sugar or raisins and shape the dough in discs with a grid on top.

Steps:
- Proof yeast by taking 3 cups of luke warm (should feel pleasantly warm on wrist and be about 105-110F; if too hot it will kill the yeast) in a 4 or more cup measuring cup and add 4 Tbs. of instant yeast and 2 Tbs. of sugar. Mix a little. When it reaches the top of the 4 cup mark it is done.
- Meanwhile mix bread flour and salt. [For Rosh Hashannah I add the anise seeds.] Add oil and proofed yeast and water. Knead until smooth, adding flour if dough is too sticky or warm water if too stiff.
- Oil a large mixing bowl. Place dough in bowl, turning once to coat. Cover loosely with a damp towel and allow to rise until doubled (time depends upon warmth of house but with this much yeast maybe as little as 30 minutes to 1 hour).
- When doubled punch down, knead gently folding over. [Now is a good time to separate the challah for the bracha.] Divide into halves, quarters, or eighths depending on size of loaf or smaller for rolls. Shape in braids, discs, rounds, etc. as preferred. Place on greased cookie sheets or whatever shape pan preferred. Cover loosely with towel and allow to rise another hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush each loaf with beaten egg if desired. [If using discs for Rosh Hashannah: use a sharp blade to cut a tic-tac-toe grid on each disc.] Sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds if desired.
- Bake 30 minutes or until golden and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Remove and cool on racks.

WATER CHALLAH
From "Dining In" ... posted in response to someone's search for a water challah recipe. I did use Splenda in place of the sugar and replace half of the oil with applesauce, but otherwise I followed the recipe exactly... until it came to the part where I was supposed to braid it into pans. I baked them directly on the cookie sheets, so I probably should have reduced the baking time. They were a bit overdone because of that, but taste-wise, they were just like any bakery water challah I've had.

Steps:
- Crumble the yeast into the water, add sugar, and let bubble. Add flour. Mix well. Add remaining ingredients and knead to a soft dough. The dough has to be kneaded very well. Even if it seems like too much flour, keep kneading until it is all incorporated. Let rise 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- Separate challah and braid (the dough shouldn't need extra flour) into pans. Once braided, let the challos rise 1 1/2 to 2 hours (for light, airy texture). Preheat oven to 250. Brush challos with egg and place in oven.
- After 10 minutes, raise oven temperature to 450 for 10 minutes, then lower to 350 and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from pans onto cookie sheet and bake at 350 for an additional 10 minutes.
