Dried strawberries, honey and ingenuity make this a new and beautiful sweet challah for the holidays. You can substitute raisins but honestly, what for? Pretty and unique and leftovers, as always make great French Toast or Challah Bread Pudding for Yom Kippur. You can add a touch of vanilla of you like and sprinkle the top with almonds instead of the sugar and sesame seeds called for. I found dried strawberries at Costco, American Spoon Foods and at a local Middle Eastern bulk food store. The strawberries dot the golden dough and each bite is absolutely wonderful, more so, dipped in honey on the side.
