I just had a bagel with avocado for breakfast! Bagels are actually originated in the Jewish community of Poland. Do you like bagels?
I love them. I'm a big fan of the kind with asiago cooked on them.
mmm, sounds delicious! Asiago is my favorite Italian cheese, i love the texture
Did you know that they are the only bread that is boiled just before cooking to get that texture.
I actually didn't know that! I just really love how dense and chewy bagels are
They are an old world bread so they needed to be able to last a long time so they were made very dense for shelf life. The shelf life is also part of why there is a hole. Its for a rod to hold many.
That's pretty interesting! Do you like plain bagels or do you like bagels with poppy or sesame seeds on top?
