Bagel Making Video - Old Recipe

Our bakers have always wanted to make bagels! Until now, we did not have the equipment (a shaping machine, a boiling kettle, and a special oven). Traditional bagels, which originated with the New York Jewish population in the early 1900's, use only basic ingredients, similar to most of our breads. Their quality is determined by the process, and we like the challenge of focusing on the process! The advent of the bagel-shaping machine in the 1940's paved the way for bakeries to make hundreds of bagels a day. You'll see our bagel machine in action in this video, and it's pretty amazing to watch. Note: in 2015, our recipe changed to include honey, canola oil, and sourdough starter. We updated the video, but the 2015 version is basically the same (with jazz instead of rock music).

Why were you making the cinnamon raisin by hand? What is the machine called

[@justinkemeter]

Was that a lye boil or just plain water?

[@WeaverStreetMarket]

I'm pretty sure it includes lye (but I need to check with the bakers).

Touching all the food with their bare hands... You got to be kidding.

Most state health depts. state that if a food product will be cooked; baked, boiled, fried, roasted as the end result, gloves are not required

What the old amounts you used to use?

[@WeaverStreetMarket]

Hi, I'm afraid I no longer have access to the old recipe. I'm sorry about that. Emily

[@holdenadams91]

WeaverStreetMarket I work in a bakery and I was wondering if my recipe was right I mean it works but ya

[@WeaverStreetMarket]

There are lots of different recipes for bagels--if it works, it's probably right :)

+gunner guy Hi, We do pass out our recipes, but sometimes it takes a few days to get it from the bakery. Send us an email at [e-mail] and we will send you the recipe. Thanks, Emily

+gunner guy by chance could you pass me some measurements for a recipe of this size volume if you ever got that figured out? I've been messing with it and my dough is a bit dry and hard to work with- email: "shadycloud14@ gmail"
