OK, although I love what you guys do and I only want to offer positive comments, I do have to admit that this is a very American, not very traditionally European-Jewish, looking challah.
The knuckles in the braiding are too tight and small, the height is too low, the loaf is too long and narrow, and the dough is too sweet.
This is also quite a rich dough for my tradition.
However, if you ignore my peanut gallery commentary, do yourself a favor and shmear the challah with some good 'ole shmaltz and add a handful of gribenes on top and you've got yourself quite the delicacy!
