| ==Having two loaves of Challah==
| | #REDIRECT [[The meals of Shabbat#Having_two_loaves_of_Challah]] |
| # Having Lechem Mishna means that one needs to make Hamotzei over two loaves of bread on Shabbat and Yom Tov in commemoration of the double portion of Maan that fell before Shabbat and Yom Tov. <ref>S”A 274:1, Mishna Brurah 274:1 </ref> | | [[Category:Shabbat]] |
| # Women are also obligated in Lechem Mishneh. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 274:1 </ref>Some say that the women should hear the Bracha from the one making HaMotzei on the two loaves, while others defend the minhag of those who don’t hear the HaMotzei and make HaMotzei on the piece given to them. <Ref>Sh”t Kinyan Torah 1:88 and Eshel Avraham (siman 274) defend the minhag, while Sh”t Bear Moshe quotes the חתם סופר who was insistent on having the women hear the Bracha of HaMotzei from the one making it over two loaves. </ref> | |
| # Preferably both loaves should be fresh but if one is frozen after the fact they may be used for making the Bracha of HaMotzei. <Ref>Sh”t Yabea Omer 7:32, Or Letzion (vol 2, chapter 21:2) </ref>
| |
| ==Passing the Challah==
| |
| # One shouldn’t give the Challah directly into the hands of someone else but rather one should place it down on a plate or the table to pass it to someone else. <Ref>Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 1 pg 312), Piskei Teshuvot (Siman 274 note 7) </ref>
| |
| ==How much to eat==
| |
| # For the Friday night meal and Shabbat day meal one needs to have a KeBaytzah of bread and if that’s difficult one may have a Kezayit of bread (and in such a case one should wash without a Bracha). <Ref>Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 1 pg 313) </ref>
| |
| ==Which Challah to break==
| |
| # On Friday night, one should cut the lower of the two loaves. On Shabbat morning and Yom Tov night and morning one should cut the upper of the two loaves. <Ref>S”A and Rama 274:1 </ref>

| ==Sweet Challah==
