Why do we eat challah with salt?
Salt is a major symbol for blessing in all cultures. In Judaism, it is a symbol to the covenant between the people of Israel and God as said in the Bible : ”It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the Lord for both you and your offspring” (Numbers, 18:19). It derives from the crucial use of salt for sacrifice in the Holy Temple. The ceremony of dipping the challah bread in salt is reassuring this covenant while thanking God for our bread.

What is a Sustainable Wooden Challah Board?
Sustainable wooden challah board means that the wood which is used to craft the boards is cut only from trees that had to be cut off due to necessity, such as disease, root problems, danger- like adjacent to electrical cables or trees that fall in winter storms. No tree is cut off for commercial purposes.
Why did I name our wooden challah board BRITT?
Our Wooden Challah board was named ＢＲＩＴＴ (בְּרִית), the word for covenant in Hebrew.
In Judaism salt is a symbol for the covenant between God and the people of Israel: ” It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the Lord for both you and your offspring.” (Numbers, 18:19).
This symbol evolved into the Shabbat dinner whereas the Challah bread is dipped in salt while blessed. What would be more appropriate and sublime than naming our Wooden Challah Board
ＢＲＩＴＴ? combined with the salt of its earth?
Our covenant with God, as humans, is to be the guardians of the universe’s creation.
To be sustainable is to sign that treaty.
