REAL HOMEMADE BAGELS

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/4 cup water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, vegetable oil, and yeast in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Mix on low speed using the dough hook until well-developed, about 8 minutes. To ensure the gluten has developed fully, cut off a walnut-sized piece of dough. Flour your fingers, and then stretch the dough: if it tears immediately, the dough needs more kneading. Fully developed dough should form a thin translucent "windowpane."
• Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel, and let rise for 2 hours.
• Punch the dough down, place it on a lightly floured work surface, and use a knife or dough scraper to divide the dough into 6 pieces (or more, for smaller bagels). Roll each piece of dough into a sausage shape about 6 inches long. Join the ends to form a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough, and let the bagels rest for 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange small plates with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and onion flakes next to the baking sheet.
• Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add honey, if desired (see Editor's Note). Boil the bagels, three at a time, until they rise to the surface of the pot, about 1 minute per side. Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Dip the tops of the wet bagels into the toppings and arrange them, seeds up, on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt, if desired. Bake in the preheated oven until the bagels begin to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO BAGELS

Steps:

• BREAD MACHINE: Put the ingredients in the bread pan in the order listed, and then put the bread pan into the bread machine. Select the dough setting, as you won't be baking this in the machine.
• When the dough sequence completes, stop the machine and remove the dough.
• BY HAND: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the yeast. Combine water, sugar, and salt; pour over flour mixture.
• Add the tomatoes and beat at low speed of electric mixer for 30 seconds to a minute, scraping bowl a few times.
• Stir in as much flour as you can mix with a spoon.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead in enough flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes).
• Cover with a clean towel and let rest 10 minutes.
• FOR BOTH: Cut into 10-12 equal portions; shape each portion into a smooth ball.
• Punch a hole in the center of each ball with your fingers and pull gently to make a 1 1/2 inch hole in the center.
• Arrange the rounds on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silpat (NOT wax paper, trust me) and cover with a clean towel.
• Put the cookie sheet into a warm place and allow it to rise undisturbed, 45-60 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 400 F at this time.
• In a large saucepan or wok, bring 2 quarts of water to boil over medium heat. (Do NOT use a non-stick pan for this.)
• Carefully drop the dough rounds into the water one at a time and boil each bagel about 2-3 minutes, until visibly puffed from the water.
• Remove the bagels from the water and transfer briefly to a clean towel before moving to the cookie sheet again.
• Bake at 400 F until lightly browned, about 20 minute.
