Bagels, if they aren't boiled-then, it's just a roll with a hole.   Making bagels is super easy, and don't let the boiling part scare you!  

For a white based bagel, we use our Grandma's White dough that is discussed in episode five.   

1 1/2 cups of warm water (approximately 100 degrees).

2 packages or one and 3/4 tablespoons of active dry yeast.

4 cups of unbleached bread flour. Note the recipe requires bread flour, not all purpose flour.

1/4 cup of honey.

1 tablespoon of salt.

Refrigerate dough over night.  

Add a Tablespoon of honey, or malt syrup, and 1 tsp of baking soda to boiling water.   Boil each side from 15-60 seconds.  Egg wash the topside, and add any toppings desired.  Bake at 400 degree oven until bagels reach 185 degrees internal temp.
