| I need to find a good recipe and any tips from bakers out there. Thanks. |

They’re fun to make! I like this recipe
https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/homemade-bagels/ They’re pretty straightforward but the most important thing is using high gluten flour, weighing the flour, and giving your oven time to really heat up. |
I found the hardest part of the whole thing to be the shaping. Make sure you use a recipe with barley malt, for NY style bagels. I just ordered an out of print cookbook with lots of NY bakery recipes (for a totally different reason). I intend to try the bagel/bialy recipe. Will let you know if it’s better than what I have made previously. |
I use this recipe! My oven isn’t all that great and my bagels turn out excellent. Definitely use a food scale to weigh ingredients, use King Arthur bread flour, and use the barley malt syrup! It makes a difference |
| Thanks for all the tips. Now to find malted barley syrup. |
Order it from amazon |
MOM's organic market might have it. |
| Do it! So tasty. Pretzels are very similar to make and also yummy. |
Most health food stores have it, in the honey/brown rice/agave syrup aisle. |
