Yep, I said Perfect New York Style Bagels… and I do mean perfect!!
These were my second attempt at homemade bagels. The first was a much simpler recipe, and turned out great bagels.
This recipe though, is a perfect copycat of my favorite new york style bagel shop bagels!
I’m sure I will be making both recipes, depending on time and ingredients on hand… but when I’m really craving an authentic bagel, this recipe is the hands-down winner!
I can’t even tell you how excited I was when I tasted the first one of these. Besides the fact that I conquered something that has intimidated me for years… I also just saved myself hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars!
(I can’t give you exact specifics, but I know that when I go to the city and stock up on a dozen bagels it usually costs me over $13, and they are way cheaper to make at home!!)
I may have almost cried. (Forgive me… I’m pregnant. We do weird things like that!)
And then I may have eaten 1 or 2…
Or 6.
