***NEW YORK BAGELS***
New York bagels were founded in 1907 in New York City. Here making bagels became an art, simmering the raw dough in boiling water prior to baking was the best kept secret to create the chewy texture and lock in the flavour. The bagels were then stone-baked to create the ultimate perfect outer crust.
Bagels are one of the most nutritious bread products you can eat and ounce for ounce have less than half the fat of most white breads. New York Bagels are low in fat with less than 2% fat in their plain bagel.
New York bagels come in 7 yummy flavours including:
? Plain
? Cinnamon and Raisin
? Sesame Bagel
? Onion
? Multi Seeded
? Seeded Bran
? Fruit ?n Oats
I am reviewing the Sesame Seeds bagels.
***PRICE/AVALIABILITY***
You can get New York Bagels from most super-markets including Tesco ...
Advantages: Great taste, lots of varieties available, fantastic price. Disadvantages: None.
New York Bakery Bagels are my favourite brand by far and a packet of 5 is available from £1.13 from Tesco or www.tesco.co.uk and these are packaged in a plastic bag with a neck seal tab and this means that you can undo the bag, take out just one or two bagels & then reseal them for freshness.
These dough is produced, simmered in boiling water & then the bagels are stonebaked and they take on the most fantastic flavour & appearance. The outside of this particular bagel is glazed and a lovely light brown colour. These bagels can be toasted or eaten as they come, I generally toast these and I love a wide variety of toppings on them.
Cut them down the middle & add any topping of your choice (either after toasted or if you are eating as a sandwich) the bagels taste fantastic with spreadable cheese & Marmite or smoked salmon & cream ...
Advantages: Great if you toast them, good packaging, fill you up! Disadvantages: Could do with more of the raisins and cinnamon
A few weeks ago a friend of mine came to stay with us for a long weekend. I knew most of what she ate as we have similar eating habits but I was a little unsure what to get for breakfast. She was staying for a long weekend so I did plan on popping to the local Supermarket to pick up some fresh croissants but when I asked my friend if she fancied something like this she suggested to m that we should have some bagels.
I have to be honest and admit that I have never tried Bagels before so I had no idea what made good or bad one and what brands to look out for. Apparently a bagel is boiled for a short time in water and then baked resulting in a chewy doughy interior with a browned exterior.
So there I was in my Tesco Supermarket wandering up the bread section, as I was sure this is where I would find the bagels. Sure enough I found ...
