Recipe: NY Style Bagel

So Much Food: New York Style Bagel Recipe
I had another recipe, but this one looked better when I found it about 2 years ago. I placed the link and so here it is where I can find it again.

After real NY Style bagel – anything else is just donut shaped bread.

Of course the missing “ingredient” is the Water in NYC and Yonkers, but that can’t be helped.

For the Sourdough fiends among us: You can use your Sourdough sponge as a starting point – You will need to add a good yeast and the rise will take longer, but oh my goodness, you will think you died and went to the lower East Side for breakfast.

But oh my goodness, you will think you died and went to the lower East Side for breakfast.

AND a big thank you to @jennygoycochea Her recipes are often “worth giving a try”

Continuing my dig thru unpublished Tiplet Drafts…
While doing a recipe conversion, found this link – it has quite a few “Egg” Facts – so worth a read, or you can just scroll down a bit to the Weight Class chart for the Food Math.
How Much Does An Egg Weigh ?

Alina Zeranska The Art Of Polish Cooking

This book is often my “starting point” for adapting recipes to the appliances #InMySmallKitchen – My copy is the 1968 edition. Treasured for its many notes written by me, those from aunts, cousins, and even Peggy Masterson one of the “Ladies in the office” If you are interested I did see some reasonably priced copies on line, possibly Alibris or you can use this affiliate link to see what Amazon has in new & Used versions.

*ALDI prices often vary from area to area – Although ALDI has the lowest “mark up” among stores that do not offer “In-Store Pricing” – the above is based on delivery by Instacart I compared these with the same items in other states. Prices were similar

P.S. The Beef for Carne Asada or Carne Picada is excellent for use in Taco, Fajitas, Italian Beef, Chili, and pretty much anyplace you would use either ground or sliced beef – just change up the seasoning blends. AND… For someone with hand grip/arthritis issues, it is worth the extra few cents per pound
