New York style bagels are amazing! This recipe has become a staple for my family. Whenever I make these, my kids are hovering over my shoulder until I say they can have one. Here are two videos. The first is a cool video showing how bagels are made at a professional company. This second video is a tutorial of how to make them at home. This is where I based the recipe I use. Ingredients 530 grams (2 1/6 cups) warm water (86°F/30°C) 3 grams (1t) instant yeast 940 grams (6c bread flour) 10 grams (1T) diastatic malt powder (or 10 grams / 2.5 tsp sugar as a substitute) 20 grams (1T+ 1/4t) salt 3-4 liters (1 gallon) water for boiling 50 grams (2 1/2 T) molasses Instructions In a medium bowl, combine water and yeast.

Bread and Butter Pickles

Image
I like this recipe from Food Wishes for bread and butter pickles. Ingredients for about 2 pints: 2 lbs pickling or other firm, little cucumbers 1/2 yellow onion, sliced 2 red jalapeno pepper, sliced 3 tbsp kosher salt 2 cups sugar 2 cups white distilled vinegar 1/4 cup water 1 tbsp mustard seeds 1 teaspoon celery seeds 1/8 tsp ground cloves 1/2 teaspoon turmeric 1 tsp black peppercorns 2 cloves garlic, sliced Instructions: Slice cucumbers, onions, and peppers Mix with kosher salt Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours Rinse vegetables thoroughly In a stock pot, combine all other ingredients Bring to a simmer on medium-high heat for 2 minutes Put vegetables into the brine Heat to a point just before boiling (small bubbles start appearing on side) Put into bottles Refrigerate. They will last a long time. If you want them to last longer, you can put them in a canner - except they won't last long enough to be worth the effort!
