| | The Separation of Challah - Purim (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | Whether challah is to be separated or not depends upon the type of and amount of flour, and liquid contents of the dough. |
 | | Challah is separated when the dough is made of one of, or a combination of, the following five grains: wheat, rye, barley, oat and spelt. |
 | | To separate challah with a blessing, the majority of the liquid contents of the dough should be water, provided that the flour requirements are met. |
