wooo hooooo!!! I did it! Yesterday my Sir Lancelot arrived, as well as the non-diastatic malt, and the spray glue (LOL can't remember the name- Baker's Shine maybe?) I used my sourdough starter and then added the rest of the ingredients. Of course, I add high maize to everything so that was in there. About a scant 1/4 cup to half the recipe. I halved the recipe to get 6 regular sized bagels. And I added about 1/4 cup of harvest grains blend and some onion flakes since I wanted "Everything bagels" For the topping, I took some more of the grain blend and buzzed it a few times in the food processor to make the larger seeds just a bit smaller. I've got 6 beautiful, shiny, seed-topped bagels cooling now. I used the steaming method. Very easy. Thanks for helping me become a better baker. Now, a question- have you blogged any recipes for hamburger or hotdog buns? The soft kind? May family is not fond, as I am, of a more rustic bun. They like the old squishy grocery store buns. Thanks! cindy Yaaay good for you Cindy! We haven't blogged about hamburger buns but we have some really good recipes on our web. Beautiful Burger Buns is one of my favorites. Mary @ KAF
