Homemade Bagels

Hello Dear Friends,

When I think of bagels, the water stops flowing, I used to have a bagel shop that I stopped by every morning when I was working at the company, I used to buy a bagel and triangle cheese on the way to work, and I would solve the breakfast with cucumber and tomato... When Home & Office started to work, my bagel consumption decreased to a maximum of 1 per week. Since there was no bagel shop on the street, I only stayed at the street market, which is set up on Sundays.

Then I discovered the simit making thing at home, first bagel with olives I started with and I was very satisfied :) Then I moved on to homemade bagels at home. Yes, it is not exactly like a street bagel, but it is quite tasty. In the coming days, I will try a stone oven bagel using my baking stone :)

Anyway… One of the recipes that I have wanted to share with you for a long time is homemade bagel it was the recipe :) Simit You can easily find recipe ingredients abroad. In this way, I will be of some help to my followers abroad who miss eating bagels :)

While preparing this recipe, I thought it would be more useful to take a video instead of a photo. I think it will be much easier to prepare this way :)

5. Divide your fermented dough into walnut-sized balls.
