Milk bagels with poppy seeds and sesame seeds

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   The ingredients we need, + we still need 1 protein for greasing and, if desired, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, seeds for sprinkling bagels

2. Step 2:

   

   In warm milk (milk should be exactly warm, not hot!!) dilute the yeast, add 1 tbsp.l. sugar and leave for 5 minutes.

3. Step 3:

   

   Add vegetable oil and two eggs to the milk, mix.

4. Step 4:

   

   In a large bowl, sift the flour, add 1 tsp salt, mix well so that the salt spreads over the flour. In the center we make a hole and add the milk mixture. Knead the dough. Since everyone has different flour, then you may need either more or less flour, focus on the dough, it should turn out soft and a little sticky, but not liquid.

5. Step 5:

   

   The kneaded dough must be kneaded well. Knead for 7-10 minutes, the dough should turn out smooth and tender, very soft and pleasant. Put the finished dough in a greased bowl and leave it in a warm place to rise, for 40 - 60 minutes. The dough should increase 2-3 times.

6. Step 6:

   

   Crumble the dough that came up and..

7. Step 7:

   

   Divide into equal parts, I divided into 15 koloboks.

8. Step 8:

   

   Now we form bagels. There are two ways, the first is to make a hole in the center of the bun with your finger and then scroll with your hands, thus increasing the hole.

10. Step 9:

    

    This is the kind of bagel you get.

11. Step 10:

    

    But I like the second and simpler way, we roll out each bun into a flagellum.

12. Step 11:

    

    We connect the ends of the flagellum, be sure to fasten it well, so that they do not fall apart during cooking.

13. Step 12:

    

    Leave the formed bagels to rise for 15 minutes. We don't need a particularly big lift. Meanwhile, on the stove, bring water to a boil in a saucepan, and put the oven on preheating to 220 C. It is better to take a saucepan if there is a low, but wide one. Add sugar to the water, for 4 liters of water about 1 tablespoon of sugar without a slide.

14. Step 13:

    

    When the water boils, we send our bagels into it, several pieces at a time (if the dimensions allow) and boil for 1-2 minutes, it is advisable to turn the bagels over during cooking. The water should boil very, very little, the heating should be minimal.

15. Step 14:

    

    We pull out the boiled bagels with a slotted spoon and put them on a baking sheet.

16. Step 15:

    

    Grease the bagels with protein and, if desired, sprinkle with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, etc. Reduce the temperature in the oven to 180 C and bake for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

17. Step 16:

    

    Let the finished bagels cool down and serve to the table. Enjoy your meal.
