My Attempt at the Perfect Sourdough Bagel
If there’s one thing I’ve learned lately, it’s that making sourdough bagels is an adventure. A slightly frustrating, often messy, but ultimately delicious adventure.
I’ve been on a mission to perfect my homemade sourdough bagels, but let’s just say they’re not exactly bakery-perfect yet. They’re lumpy, oddly shaped, and definitely not uniform. Some are puffier than others, some have holes that mysteriously disappear while baking, and others look like they got into a fight with the dough hook. But despite their less-than-perfect appearance, they’re still homemade, still delicious, and—most importantly—still being eaten.
