| Jan 22, 2019 at 17:34 | comment | added | bob1 | @Erica and Galastel: Thanks for the information. I'm not Jewish so have little to no understanding of the laws or rituals of Judaism. I was merely reciting what I (obviously) mis-remembered from what I had read about challah; there was no offense intended in my comment. | |
| Jan 22, 2019 at 17:20 | comment | added | Galastel supports GoFundMonica | @bob1 What Erica is trying to say is: Jewish dietary laws (called Kashrut) say one isn't supposed to mix meat and dairy. So if you intend to eat your challah with meat, you wouldn't put milk or butter in it, and if you're a commercial producer, you wouldn't want to be making dairy challah because you wouldn't want to lose the potential buyers who'd want to eat their challah with meat. But in and of itself, there is no prohibition on dairy challah. And, dietary laws are not ritual. :) | |

Tradional challa does not normally contain any dairy products as there is something about dairy and Jewish rituals. I think there are also egg-free variants which are similar to baguettes IIRC. | |
