CHALLAH SEPARATION

Enter the amount of flour used for your dough.

Type of flour
Measure followed

The Torah measure is a volume of dough. Its equivalent in grams depends on the measure and custom followed: your Rav will tell you which value to use.

GENERAL PROCEDURE

  1. Prepare the dough.
  2. Take out the required amount, a small piece of dough.
  3. Say the berakha if it applies.
  4. Designate that piece as Challah.
  5. Handle the separated piece according to the practice where you live.

Thresholds and the conditions for the berakha depend on the halakhic opinion followed and on the type of flour: ask your Rav.
