Lunch break
I'm just leaving New York, and having my traditional trip-ending bagel. As such, a tutorial on making decent bagels in the comfort of your own home seems appropriate.

No malt syrup in the dough, no alkali in the bath? Hm.

Rather than make them, just go to Kossar's Bialys on 367 Grand. The bagels are delish.

like many things in life, making bagels is something everyone should try once.
i was snowed in, in bleak and frigid darkness on the alaska range in a cabin in fairbanks, in february...and figured...this is going to be a very long day...why not make bagels?
i made every kind i could think of, and they came out surprisingly well. those comforting bagels got me through a very difficult day.
i think i ate everyone of them.
a good project when there is snow and ice imploding on your roof and icicles as long as a walking stick.
