Directions
Artisan Style Bagels, This is a recipe that requires times and patience and is a two day process Also, please note that this recipe produces a soft interior and a crispy exterior, not the dense and chewy style associated with New York bagels If you love bread and bread making, then this recipe is for you! Enjoy! p s I consulted several recipes books for this preparation, but mainly relied on The Bread Maker’s Apprentice by Peter Reinhert , These are soooo good to eat! I have made this recipe twice now But mine don’t puff up and are not tall at all We end up putting the entire bagel in the toaster because they are too thin to slice What am I doing wrong?
