Sourdough Challah (with added yeast)

I made another run at a four braid sourdough challah. This time I used some added yeast, and used black sesame seeds.

Braided Marbled Sourdough Rye Breaf

I was heading up to Baltimore so I decided to make a marbled sourdough rye bread for my friend Denise.



(I had to bring the bread in my carry on luggage, so I placed it on a cooling rack for stability, and use aluminum foil to package it. The man at the TSA scanner looked at me a bit funny - I quickly reassured him it was a bread. I asked him if this was the most unusual thing he had scanned today, and he said it was, but waved me through.)
