Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon sourdough starter
- 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 tablespoons water
- 1/2 cup active sourdough starter
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons honey (or sugar)
- 2 teaspoons fine sea salt
- 4 cups + 2 tablespoons bread flour
- 6 cups water
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- Sesame seeds
- Everything Bagel Seasoning
- Salt ( sprinkle on top, don’t dip)

- Shredded cheese
Instructions
- Step 1- Feed Your Sourdough Starter
● About 12 hours before making the dough, add the ingredients to create ½ cup (100 g) of active sourdough starter in a clean jar.
● Stir until combined, loosely cover the jar, and let it rise at room temperature.
● The starter is ready when it has doubled in size and is full of bubbles on the surface and sides of the jar. - Step 2- Make the Dough
● In the bowl of a stand mixer, stir together the starter, water, honey, and salt with a spatula.
● Add the bread flour and use your hands to bring the ingredients together as best as possible; the dough will be very stiff.
● Attach the dough hook and mix on the lowest speed for 6-7 minutes (or knead by hand for 10 minutes).
● Cover the bowl and let the dough rest at room temperature for 8-12 hours. - Step 3- Shape the Bagels
● Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
● Turn the dough onto a clean surface and divide into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
● To form a bagel, poke a hole through the center of the dough ball with your thumb, gently shape the ring, and place on the parchment.
● Repeat with remaining dough balls. Cover with a towel and let rise for 30-60 minutes, until puffy. - Step 4- Boil the Bagels
● Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and position the rack in the center.
● Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a large stockpot and add 1 tablespoon sugar.
● Boil the bagels 2 minutes on each side, 3-4 at a time, without crowding the pot.
● Remove with a mesh strainer and let them rest on the parchment until cool enough to handle. - Step 5– Add Toppings
● Once cool enough, dip one side of each bagel into your choice of toppings and place back onto the parchment. - Step 6– Bake the Bagels
● Bake at 425°F (218°C) for 25-28 minutes, until golden brown.
