Does anyone know the best method for making challah bread and freezing it?
I made two loaves and froze them after they rose......I didn't know if I should let them unthaw and rise again before baking.....or just put them into a 350 oven and start them to bake frozen.........Ginny

You may want to break your dough down into more loaves than you intended. Fred Foodie Forums http://www.foodieforums.com

The old Fleishman booklet has freezer doughs. The general instructions are to mix, knead, let rest for 20 minutes, shape, and freeze. Defrost at room temperature, loosely covered with plastic wrap, for two hours. Then let rise in a warm place until doubled -- about 1 1/2 hours. Then bake as usual. Karen R.

I've not tried for a long time, but my inclination would be to pop the loaves in the freezer a little ahead of a full rise. Then let them thaw and sit for several hours before going in the oven. Even then, you run the risk of uneven texture because the central part hasn't thawed, or at least reached the temperature of the exterior. I generally bake them all, then freeze. DaveT
