Since Sliced Bread

Three cheers for today’s cook! Matt not only made this delicious partially whole wheat Challah bread from scratch this week (an experiment for a bakery addition), but he whipped up a big batch of French toast for us all this morning!

    Wow, that bread looks so pretty! Way to go, Matt! I love your multi-colored plates. One day I hope to have dishes like that – easy to mix and match, but still uniform. Perfect! Looks like a great breakfast 🙂 Enjoy your Sunday!

    Hi Kath,

    I am an avid reader of your blog and since you are an RD I was hoping you might be able to help me out. I am currently working on a school project comparing vegetarian diets vs. meat diets and I have found a ton of research on vegetarian diets but unfortunately not much on diets that include meat – would you be able to send me some links to some sources or perhaps just provide some firsthand knowledge? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    • KathEats says

      April 1, 2012 at 9:55 am

      Sarah, Do you mean articles that say meat in the diet is good? I don’t know of any that argue that necessarily, but you might search for anything that discusses the bioavailability of complete animal protein or heme iron or the importance of nutrients hard to get from plants alone like EPA/DHA and vitamin B12.

      It’s a traditional braided Jewish bread eaten on the Sabbath. I don’t know too much more, but there’s info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challah

      It’s slightly sweet and slightly eggy – very good!

    Homemade challah is so special! I made it for the first time last summer. It is the best bread! And I always think it’s funny that non Jewish people call it “challah bread” and it’s just “challah” to Jewish people.

    Oh, yeah! You can bet I’ll be bringing a loaf of the Challah home for this this weekend. Our favorite French Toast bread is the Cinnamon Swirl or the Finnish Pulla. Fan-tast-ic! I’ll direct our FB readers over to check out this post, for sure. 🙂
