Delicious Chewy Bagels
Directions
- 1In a measuring cup, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 10 minutes (skip if using instant yeast).
- 2In a mixing bowl, combine bread flour and salt.
- 3Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and stir for 15 big stirs.
- 4Do 10 cladottes (scoop and punch with your knuckles) to combine the dough. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
- 5Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead for 5-10 minutes until smooth (or use a stand mixer on level 4 for 5 minutes).

- 7Divide the doubled dough into 8 or 12 pieces, depending on the size of bagels you want.
- 8Shape each piece into a ball and make a hole in the center using your thumbs.
- 9Place bagels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with a towel and let rest for 20 minutes.

- 11Boil 12 cups of water with 1 tablespoon of sugar.
