Poll question: Battle Of The Bagels- What's The Best Kind? |
|
Then there's the whole toasted or non-toasted debate. :)
I like sesame seed bagels, after they've cooled and hardened with whipped unsalted butter. I eat bottom half first and then the top half.
Sometimes there's the splurge on cream cheese and lox... but that's not too often.

2. The problem with Everything bagels IMO |
|
Is they are loaded with salt. Ditch the salt and they are fine.
I like onion and poppy. Sun dried tomato is real good.
On some level though, anything but a plain bagel is bogus. Yes I have a purist streak. Oh yeah, toasting is OUT!

5. Toasting is delicate matter |
|
Toasting a fresh bagel is sacrilege. Why tamper with nature's perfection? Day old bagels benefit from a gentle warming, but they burn if toasted too long. All that's really neded is enough heat to warm them all the way through and maybe turn the cut surface a pale golden color. If you can't get lox King Oscar kipper snacks make an adequate substitute.

Bagels are boiled. Real ones, that is. A couple of day old bagel will return to its original delicious semi-sogginess if put in a steamer for a minute or two.

9. I grew up with them toasted |
|
Eating them cold seems hard for me for some reason, even when I had a big appetite when I ran. I've found that they're alright microwaved briefly.

I picked up an egg bagel today at the Wawa (Wawa's a New Jersey thing). I could eat bagels everyday and not get tired of them.
