Steps:
- In a large bowl, sprinkle yeast over barely warm water. Beat in honey, oil, 2 eggs, and salt. Add the flour one cup at a time, beating after each addition, graduating to kneading with hands as dough thickens. Knead until smooth and elastic and no longer sticky, adding flour as needed. Cover with a damp clean cloth and let rise for 1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in bulk.
- Punch down the risen dough and turn out onto floured board. Divide in half and knead each half for five minutes or so, adding flour as needed to keep from getting sticky. Divide each half into thirds and roll into long snake about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Pinch the ends of the three snakes together firmly and braid from middle. Either leave as braid or form into a round braided loaf by bringing ends together, curving braid into a circle, pinch ends together. Grease two baking trays and place finished braid or round on each. Cover with towel and let rise about one hour.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat the remaining egg and brush a generous amount over each braid. Sprinkle with poppy seeds if desired.
- Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 40 minutes. Bread should have a nice hollow sound when thumped on the bottom. Cool on a rack for at least one hour before slicing.

- First, make your challah dough. Prepare the yeast in a large mixing bowl for a stand mixer by whisking it with warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar (that helps activate the yeast). Let stand until it foams and puffs up, about 10 minutes. If it doesn’t get foamy, your yeast is either bad or the water was too warm or cool. Try again!
- Using the whisk attachment for the stand mixer, add the remaining sugar, eggs, oil, and honey. (You can use a whisk if you’re doing this by hand.) Gradually add 3 cups flour and salt, either using a hook attachment with the stand mixer on medium speed or a spoon and your hands until the dough begins to pull away from the sides. Dough should still be slightly sticky and soft. Add more flour as needed if the dough is very sticky. You may not need all the flour. You will knead the dough more when you add the color so you don’t have to knead now.
- Flatten out each piece and put some gel food coloring of each color of the rainbow in the middle of each one. Then mix until your dough is dyed! This will take a few minutes for each, so be prepared. Add more color as needed, and wear gloves if you don’t want purple hands.

- The red/pink you can use beet or pomegranate juice. I used harissa which started to make it too orange so added some beet juice. If you want to make your own beet juice, simmer a small peeled and diced beet in a little bit of water until pink or use a juicer.
- For the green, simmer 2 cups of spinach in just enough water to cover when the spinach is packed down (I used about 1 cup). Simmer 15 minutes until spinach is very wilted and water is very green. Cool the spinach in the liquid and blend in a blender or food processor. I used this straight up, spinach pieces and all, or you can drain it.

- Place each ball into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment. Add 4 to 6 drops of food color. Knead for 2 to 3 minutes, or until dough is evenly colored throughout. If kneading dye in by hand, wear disposable gloves, or throughly wash hands after handling each color.
