I couldn't believe I made a decent bagel that rivals that of one of my favorite bakeries in CA where I grew up! I live on the East Coast now and too far from my favorite places in NY to get good bagels. Now I can make my own! I made my own starter from this websote if anyone is interested and it is fool proof! http://whatscookingamerica.net/Bread/SourdoughStarter.htm I made these yesterday while I was watching the Superbowl (Yeah Giants!) and I have to say that my bagels turned out AMAZING!

They didn't turn out exactly as I would've liked, but they are pretty tasty. I substituted sorghum for the malt, which I realize changes the whole thing quite a bit. I looked for malt powder to but in the boiling water, but my store only had chocolate flavored...I decided that was *not* a go. The malt makes them shiny (so says my boyfriend, who spent his early 20s working in a bagel shop). They've got a nice sour taste - but not too sour. I'll definitely do them again (if I can find some non-chocolaty malt!). Thank you! Well, I tried them =). They didn’t turn out exactly as I would’ve liked, but they are pretty tasty.

I'll have to try out your recipe. The bagels look so good! I like your method for replacing the sponge with starter. I’ll have to try out your recipe. The bagels look so good!

Send me some, please. They look delicious. I should cross over into the bread baking world as many TWD bakers have. Looks fun, however I am already fighting the calories, so .... what's a girl to do.

However, I did once hear this fascinating tidbit: the sourdough in San Francisco will always taste different (unique) from the sourdough in Boston, etc. This is because the starter is designed to pick up bacteria that are floating through the air, thus creating the fermentation (perhaps I am getting this part wrong) that creates leavening later on. And indigenous airborne bacteria vary from region to region. (Your bagels look delicious by the way.) I am by no means an expert on either breadmaking or sourdough starters.
