Directions:

  • 2. Add the flour and salt and start combining them together (by hand or mixer)

  • 3. The ratios should be good but if it's too wet or too dry just adjust it with some water or flour.

  • 4. Knead for 12 to 15 minutes until you get an elastic firm dough.

  • 5. Place it on your kitchen top with a little flour and form it into a ball.

  • 7. In the meantime combine the topping mix ingredients.

  • 8. After the dough has risen, deflate it and cut it into 8 portions.

  • 9. Form each portion into a ball. Cover them with a kitchen towel to avoid dryness.

  • 10. Using your thumb and index finger, pinch a hole in the middle and for the bagels. The hole should be around 1.5 inches wide.

  • 11. Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil, and boil the bagels for 2 minutes per side.

  • 12. After boiling, place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.

  • 13. Create an egg wash by whisking an egg with a couple of tablespoons of water and lightly brush the bagels.

  • 14. Sprinkle generously with the bagel topping mix and bake them in a preheated 220°c oven for 20 - 25 minutes until nicely browned.

  • 15. Serve them with cream cheese, salmon, butter, parma ham, or anything you desire. Enjoy!
