THANK YOU! The best 4-braid video I have found. I see how, after the braid is complete, he presses/rolls out the ends so that they are thin, before tucking them under. Will definitely try this technique.

Wanted to thank you for the clear instructions (watched other of your braiding tutorials, too). My braids came out perfect. However, even with just egg white, the tops were too browned. IS I tried the syrup method (warm water and golden syrup stirred together) and that created a nice shine with just a hint of colouring.

Thank you. Very helpful to see how you tucked the ends under. I never considered rolling the ends just a bit before tucking them.

I will need to watch this a few more times before I braid on Friday, I definitely want to try the four braid!!! :)

[AvrahamYairStern]

Gonna try this one, upgrade from my normal three braid.

I wish that the video was flipped so we could see the braiding from the same angle that you see.

[lawellins]

Love this! I was making a 6 braid to be fancy but this comes out with a nicer texture!

I restarted this 6 times until I turned my phone upside down and then could finally do it. What makes it easiest to follow the "down to the middle & replace" to the side is to put the side strands straight out to the side so as not to get them confused.

Thank you! This was so helpful for me to learn how to do the 4 braid challah.

4-braid challah sequence (start with squat rolls)

1 to 4
3 to 1

4 to 3
2 to 4
1 to 2
3 to 1

4 to 3
2 to 4
1 to 2
3 to 1
{repeat this sequence until the dough ends)

To finish, squish the tips, roll tips, and tuck each tip/end underneath the challah braid.

I need to follow your advice and not do mine so tight. I always end up with pale gaps where it tears while baking.

This is NOT the video to use for a 4 strand. #1 - why would they ever show his face while you are trying to figure this out. #2 - it's upside down...in other words they are not filming from you perspective. Find a different tutorial.

שלום! אני אוהב את הדרך בה אתה עושה חלה אתה מדהים, אני מקווה שאתה יכול לקרוא בעברית

[mgomez]

good video but does not help to learn the 4 braid challah as the camera disappears and then goes back and forward. please do focus on the braiding and stay there so we can follow all in one continuos shot. thanks

I watched this 3 times and gave up. I need to see it from my perspective, not upside down.
