Bagels

I am on a quest for the perfect homemade bagel.
For my first try I used my favorite white bread recipe and followed cooking directions I found on line.

The bagels looked pretty but came out too thin and didn't taste like a bagel.

For my second try I used a recipe on you tube. They came out big and pretty but the texture was wrong. It was a little too light and fluffy inside instead of thick and heavy like store bagels.

I plan to keep on trying. The kids and I love eating toasted bagels.

Don't forget to try them with the basic artisian dough

We also love bagels. I do hope you find a good recipe and post it. I have a friend who makes them but her recipe is pretty involved so I've never tried them. I'm afraid if I do the kids will love them and I'll feel obligated to make them often!

Your header picture is so pretty! The bagels look good. As soon as I can get the scanner to work, I'll send you the bagel recipe we have used for years.
