Homemade Bagels, what??



I never imagined myself making bagels from scratch, but that was the project I took on this evening! It all started on Sunday...I really like bread, so I decided it was time I learn to make it from scratch. Don't get me wrong, my bread machine is nice to have around, but fresh bread made by hand is amazing. So I made my first wheat bread on Sunday, which came out well. Today was bagels, which was easier than I imagined it would be. I can't get a beautiful round bagel every time, but I'm sure that could come with practice. I found this recipe online, but next time I make them I'll need to experiment with some fillings and toppings! Sesame seeds seemed easy enough for this time around.

For the few of you that read my blog out there, I thought I'd let you know that this may turn into a cooking blog for awhile since that's been my hobby lately! If other stuff comes up, I'll let you know :o)
