Fresh out of the oven. Bring on the cream cheese!

Would you mind posting your recipe?

Have you tried making bialys?

I used Peter Reinhart's recipe from The Bread Baker's Apprentice book. He claims it's authentic NY. Tasty and just the right chew for me (apparently this is adjusted by the boiling time).

Rather than type it all out, this website has it pretty much verbatim.

I've not done bialys, but Chef John has an easy recipe that I've been meaning to try.

^^^^^^ “boiling time”
That’s a good phrase in regard to making bagels.

Those look good.

Great looking job. I wouldn't have the patience to make my own, as it takes a good amount of work but you did a great job and your bagels look better than the little place I get mine from.

Those look delicious.

How long have you been making bagels? I bet if I made them the first batch would look more like a pretzel than a bagel.

Good God, those look good. And me, eating mostly protein and fresh growing stuff...

Damn.

Looks delicious!

TBH

Everything bagel with peanut butter and grape jelly. A friend from work turned me on to them. Delicious! My wife thinks I’ve lost my mind!

Bagels and knishes have been on my 'to bake' list for a looonng time. That picture is highly motivating.

This was only the second time. The first was a number of years ago and did not go well. I've since gotten much better at bread baking and since I've not found a recipe yet in Reinhart's book that I didn't like, I thought I'd give these a whirl. They're really not that difficult to make, though they do take awhile (overnight) to ferment.

Those look pretty awesome.
