Although I haven't posted on it yet, as part of the Hamelman Challenge, I recently made a Berne Brot, a challah-like bread but with milk replacing the water and butter replacing the oil. The Berne Brot was so much tastier than challah in general that I found it a bit hard to face making a whole-wheat challah.
I followed the recipe as given using agave nectar and sesame seeds. The braiding instructions for a six-braid were very hard to follow. I ended up ignoring them and doing a standard braid. The results were a very large loaf. Overall, this is not a bad loaf, but I'm definitely in the Berne Brot camp now.
