Method
Bagel Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

First Rise
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Shape the Bagels
After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and then poke a hole in the center to form the bagel shape.

Boil the Bagels
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil each bagel for about 1 minute on each side, then remove and place back on the baking sheet.
