Re: dancing with challahs

[Trudi Goodman <goobietheg...>]

   I used to be a baker. You can use any challah recipe, just halve the 
amount of sugar called for: so 1 cup of sugar becomes 1/2 cup of honey. 
Depending on your sweetness jones, you can even third that to 1/3 cup of 
honey. I'd use a light honey for a challah, like an orange blossom. The 
darker the honey, the heavier the taste.
  P.S. You can also use fructose. With fructose, you would want to halve to 
two-thirds it. So one cup of sugar would be 1/2 cup of fructose or 2/3 cup, 
depending on taste. Add a little more water or milk and a little more oil or 
butter, to your recipe, because fructose can burn. Personally, I stick with 
the honey!!!
  I know, I know, I'm not Helen, but I just couldn't resist answering 
anyways!!! May all of your challah dreams come true. And remember to save a 
piece for the Challah fairy!!!
