Both forms tasted good though, which is what really counts! I have a feeling it's a hit or miss kind of thing. That or there's some secret trick that we don't know.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17133232352924060797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060755630800309245.post-46581918165306626422010-01-30T17:52:14.313-05:002010-01-30T17:52:14.313-05:00Steph ~ That'll probably be a concern of mine ...<b>Steph</b> ~ That'll probably be a concern of mine until I get the real knack of making bagels down.

I was a bit concerned about it sticking to the spatula, though I should give it a go next time. <br /><br /><b>Laura</b> ~ Well, i did pick the best of the lot =D.

I have tried the recipe from Bread Baker's Apprentice and also from Marcy Goldman's book on Jewish baking. Both great, but I think I liked the recipe from Goldman a little better. And it is easier.Laurahttp://www.pragmaticattic.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060755630800309245.post-48325057561487666452010-01-28T10:06:04.934-05:002010-01-28T10:06:04.934-05:00Your bagel looks so good!

My email is always open. =)<br /><br /><b>Esther</b> ~ Ooh, I've been wanting to try those, too! <br /><br />Yes, and it's great so you can decide if you want the whole bagel or just a slice if you pre-slice the bagels before freezing. I usually opt for the entire bagel.<br /><br /><b>Jogger</b> ~ The first dozen were baked at 500° for 5 minutes, then lowered. The other batch I believe started out at the lower temperature and baked for 15 or so minutes, until golden. <br /><br />These can definitely be baked on a baking stone. The water on the bagel would be like using steam, too.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361819186011561670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060755630800309245.post-23234108672479805242010-01-27T15:37:00.889-05:002010-01-27T15:37:00.889-05:00Did you really bake at 500 degrees?

I know when I use a pizza stone when I bake a pizza, the crust tends to be more golden and crispy but without burning. It also tends to heat more evenly.The Joggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02830192772181847614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060755630800309245.post-35889776611191207232010-01-27T15:14:41.056-05:002010-01-27T15:14:41.056-05:00HI Christina!
