The Bagel House

The bagel is a bread product traditionally made of yeasted wheat dough in the form of a roughly hand-sized ring. It is boiled in water and then baked. The result is a dense, chewy, doughy interior with a browned and, sometimes, crisp exterior. Bagels are often topped with seeds baked onto the outer crust with the most traditional being poppy or sesame seeds.The two most prominent styles of traditional bagel in North America are the Montreal-Style Bagel and the New York-Style Bagel. The Montreal Bagel contains malt and egg but no salt; I is boiled in honey-sweetened water before baking in a wood oven
