Question
It is customary before childbirth to perform the separation of challah with a blessing. Since my family is small, I want to prepare dough in the amount required for challah separation, invite guests, conduct a challah separation ceremony, and then distribute the dough so that each woman can bake it at home. Is this permissible?
Answer
An evening of challah separation with a blessing can be held only if the challahs are baked in one place and then distributed as baked goods, or if the amount required for challah separation remains in one house. Since dough made to be distributed raw requires challah separation without a blessing.
