This week we made bagels. As stated in the post last week, this is not completely new to the group, so it was not too much of a challenge. However, we decided to challenge ourselves by making new flavors we had not made before. The flavors we made were blueberry, everything, and Asiago cheese. To begin with the bagel-making process we gathered all our needed ingredients. This included water, yeast, sugar, bread flour, salt, everything seasoning, Asiago cheese, and blueberries. To begin, we mixed warm water with sugar and yeast. We then let that sit while covered for 10 minutes to let the yeast wake up. Next, we prepared our bread flour and salt in a bowl while waiting for the yeast to wake up. Once the 10 minutes was up, we added our water mixture to the flour mixture. From there, we mixed and kneaded until we had a smooth dough. For the blueberry recipe, we added in the blueberries during this process. Once our doughs were smooth, we put them in a greased bowl and let them rise for one hour. After an hour had passed, we put our dough onto a floured work surface. From there, we cut the dough into 4 equal pieces, 8 in total from both doughs. We rolled each piece of dough into a ball and let them rest for another 10 minutes. After the dough balls had rested for 10 minutes, it was time to begin the cooking process. We added water to a pot and brought it to a boil. Once boiling, we took each dough ball, pinched a hole in the middle, and dropped it into the water for one minute per side. When this process was complete for all 8 dough balls we added our toppings. We sprinkled everything seasoning on 2 bagels and Asiago cheese on another 2 bagels. Once the bagels were topped, we put them into the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. After they were done, we let them rest for a few minutes then served them to eat. This process has many steps though it is not too difficult. Next week, we will be making cake and may have a competition to go with it.
