Sesame Bagels


- 4 cups bread flour
- 1 Tbls sugar
- 1 1/2 tsps salt
- 1 Tbls vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 2 tsps yeast
- 1 1/4 to 11/2 cups warm water

Directions:

1. Activate yeast with warm water and sugar (you do not need to do this if you are using instant yeast).

2. Mix together all ingredients, but with only 1/3 of the flour. Slowly incorporate as much of the rest of the flour as you can.

3. Need dough for ten minutes or until smooth. Divide into 8 pieces. Wait for 10-20 minutes.

4. Preheat oven to 425 F. Roll bagels into shape. Let them rest for 20 minutes.

5. Bring a deep saucepan of water to boil. Boil each side of bagel for 1 minute. Let them dry.

6. Place bagels on well oiled tray. Bake for 10 minutes on each side.


Notes: I made this with some children of Kurushima Club members in an international foods cooking contest.
