Ingredients
- 500 grams Bread flour
- 7 grams Instant yeast
- 10 grams Salt
- 300 milliliters Water
- 20 grams Barley malt syrup (optional for boiling)
- 1 tablespoon Baking soda
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well.
Step 2
Gradually add 300 milliliters of water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a rough dough forms.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then divide it into 8 equal portions.
Step 6
Shape each portion into a ball. Poke a hole through the center of each ball with your finger, then gently stretch the hole until it is about 2 inches in diameter.
Step 7
Place the shaped bagels on a lightly floured surface, cover with a cloth, and let them rest for an additional 10 minutes.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 9
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the barley malt syrup and baking soda to the boiling water.
Step 10
Boil the bagels, a few at a time, for about 1 minute on each side. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water, placing them on a baking sheet.
Step 11
Bake the bagels in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Step 12
Allow the bagels to cool on a wire rack before serving.
