The Torah of Challah is being revisited. A glance at currently-available books and articles reveals that they lack the most crucial aspect of the mitzvah of Challah - Shelo tishtakach torat challah - that the Torah of Challah not be forgotten; The "Torah of Challah" is not burning Challah but the giving of the first separated Challah to the Kohen. Done kehalcha, the mitzvah of Challah is not only a segulah for escaping a heavenly judgement, it is also the big key of Hashem's blessing for the Jewish home and Jewish family.

This is unlike any other book I have written to-date. For some, this will be incredibly controversial, especially within certain Jewish groups that are more traditional in their practices.
