Bagels -
1/4 Cup sourdough starter
3 3/4 Cups Flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 Tsp Active Dry Yeast
1/2 Tsp sugar
1/4 cup slightly warm water
1 Egg, beaten.
Extra water.
Toppings:
Cheddar cheese
garlic powder
onion powder
chia seeds
*several other toppings can be used*
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, take the yeast, the sugar, and add the water. Allow the yeast to proof to ensure it is good to use - About 15 minutes
2. In a large bowl, put in the flour, salt, and the sourdough starter, add the proofed yeast when it is ready. Add enough water to just form a ball. . Knead for 10 minutes or longer.
If you don't have a sourdough starter, you can do a couple things:
3. Let rise for an hour.
4. Punch down the dough. Bam.
5. Knead the dough a few more times on a floured surface. Form a log and cut into 12 even disks.
6. Roll each slice into a ball, then carefully poke a hole in the middle with your finger, and slowly turn and make the hole bigger, forming the shape of a bagel. Place on cookie sheet, cover with a damp towel for 30 minutes. During this time you should preheat your oven to 400° , and fill a large pot with water.
