Challah - Egg Bread

My husband makes a challah every week for Shabbat. Last week and this week he made them round for Rosh Hashanah and for Kol Nidre. It is tradition to have round challah with raisins for both of these holidays. He makes the dough in the bread machine. Then braids the dough, lets it rise and then bakes it in the oven. Our friend, Leslie gave us this recipe many years ago. This was handed down to Leslie by her mother, Carole who copied it from the New York Times magazine in 1969.
