How To Make bagels
-
1In a large bowl, lightly mix together flour, sugar, and salt.
-
2Add yeast and water, then knead together ingredients with hands to create a sticky but manageable dough.
-
3Take dough out onto flat floured surface.
-
4Knead dough firmly with your hands until the dough is no longer lumpy and powdery, approximately 15min.
-
5Add sprinkles of water or flour as necessary to keep the dough manageable — it will get elastic but pretty stiff.
-
6Roll out dough into long tube and cut 1 inch sections as seen in picture.
-
7Use your finger to poke a hole into the center of each piece.
-
8Cover the bagels with plastic wrap and let rest for about 15 minutes (30-40 min during winter time).
-
9In the meantime, fill a large pot with water and a teaspoon of sugar and bring to a simmer.
-
10Preheat oven to 375F.
-
11When the dough is ready, carefully drop them into the water (doing batches of 2 at a time) and let them simmer for about 15 seconds on each side, flipping them only once.
-
12The bagels should float when ready.
-
13Use a slotted spoon to remove bagels and place onto a baking sheet.
-
14When all bagels are boiled and no baking sheet, bake for approx. 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
