I got the idea that I wanted lots and lots of nigella seeds inside challah. Now that I’ve done it, I’ll concede I was a little heavy-handed on the nigella, but it all came together really nicely in a sandwich.

Challah: half recipe of https://smittenkitchen.com/2008/09/best-challah-egg-bread/ using fresh milled and 60-mesh sifted hard red wheat, except that I always use instant yeast and just dump all the ingredients in one go rather than the order in the recipe. I added nigella seeds with a few folds by hand after kneading in a mixer, then proofed overnight in the fridge before shaping and baking the next day.
