Re: Canadian Bacon Muffins w/cheddar

I love that Canadian bacon. Why is it called Canadian bacon and not just bacon or ham?

ISO recipe for Authentic Jewish Bagels

Does anyone have a recipe for authentic Jewish bagels? I had one from Nathan's (a local Jewish bakery) and they are like no other bagel I've ever had! They were light, not dense with a great chew. I'd love to buy them from there but they are 30 miles away.... :blush:

Re: ISO recipe for Authentic Jewish Bagels

It's easy:

1. Travel to Los Angeles.
2. Go to grocery store or deli.
3. Buy bag of Western Bagel Baking Company's bagels (preferably water bagels -- I'm a purist, I don't eat egg bagels, and I consider things like blueberry bagels to be abominations). :yuk:

Re: ISO recipe for Authentic Jewish Bagels

That looks really good but you need a steam oven to cook 'em. Gaggenau or Miele, don't know of any other that does that.

Why can't you just put a pan of water on the bottom rack of the oven?

I read the reviews and a lot of people followed these directions: Forming and Baking Bagels

Re: ISO recipe for Authentic Jewish Bagels

Search for George Greenstein's bagel recipe or get his James Beard award winning bread book out of the library. There is a trick to making them properly

Re: Semi Healthy Blueberry Muffins

Hey, I don't see anything unhealthy about those. My grandma would do stuff like this--throw in a banana, some applesauce and other fruit in muffins. She liked to improvise this way.
