Bagels, bagels, bagels!

So I decided to make bagels, since you can't buy them in Korea. Followed a simple recipe from allrecipes.com, and used bread flour for a tougher dough. I added double the yeast called for in the recipe, which made the bagels extra big and fluffy!

Proofing the bagels. Made a baker's dozen, 'cause that's what bakers do...



The boiling stage. A little sugar (1 tbsp) in the water, and only a few at a time so they don't stick together.


Half done!

Baking the bagels in the toaster oven...20 minutes at a time x 5 batches = over an hour and a half of baking time.

The finished product! (almost) a dozen gorgeous and delicious bagels - a couple got eaten while they were still fresh.
