5.0 out of 5 stars
The first and only bagel recipes that really worked!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Best Bagels Are Made at Home (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
I've tried recipes in other bagel books and they were all more like Easter bread. These taste like store-bought bagels only better

The best bagels are made at home,
This review is from: The Best Bagels Are Made at Home (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
One of my favorite books. The recipes are great .Now without a bagel store just around the corner I can bake my own homemade bagels. Donna is right, the best bagels are really made at home. Freshly baked and lukewarm eaten is one of the best things of life.

This review is from: The Best Bagels Are Made at Home (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
The basic bagel recipe in this book is the only one I would consider making. Those who would make(or buy) "easter egg bagels with candy sprinkles," etc., etc., have either a culinary sense that has evolved waaaay beyond anything I will every have (although I grew up in NYC and while there discerned a heirarchy of bagel quality from supermarket to sublime), or don't have any idea what a bagel is or should be. From this perspective, the basic bagel recipe in this book is the only one I'd consider. For this recipe, you pay the price of the book. Is it worth it? Yes, perhaps. Following the recipe verbatim will help you create a bagel of better quality than most supermarket bagels. Without considerable tweaking, however, this recipe will not result in a truly great bagel (New York or Pittsburg or Cleveland, whatever). I developed a decent recipe based on the basic bagel recipe in this book -- hence, three stars. But I'm still searching for ways to improve my own recipe and need to keep looking. There is a dearth of bagel cookbooks out there. Ergo, this book is perhaps a place to start. Certainly, if you want a easter egg bagel with candy sprinkles, or even a pumpkin orange bagel.... then look no further!
