More About Our "Back To Bagels" Cookbook
When I closed my bakery, I stopped making bagels. It was a sad day, but
making bagels at home just seemed like a hassle after having all the "right"
equipment. Still, I
MISSED
bagels. REAL bagels. Bagels with a firm glossy crust and a rich chewy crumb.
Bagels that had a great taste even before they were toasted, even without
cream cheese, butter, or lox.
I put bagels so far out of my mind, I wasn't even aware of HOW MUCH I missed
them until Gisele Hall, a friend and the owner of
Mountain Tops Milling
asked me to do a bagel baking class.
From the experiments for the class, this cookbook
was born. A simplified version of one of the recipes in the book, for
plain sourdough bagels,
is on this web page. There is a lot more detail, a lot more pictures, lots
more hand-holding, trouble shooting advice, and 8 more recipes in the book.
In talking to our customers, we have found that a real stumbling block to
making bagels is the need for dried malt extract. Many people don't know where
to find the stuff. You can go to health food stores, brewing supply houses, or
just buy some from
us.
You might want to go ahead and order some while you're thinking about it.

Some people can't, or would rather not, print copies of the cookbook. Or
maybe they just want to support the Sourdough Home web site more than the
amount represented by an electronic copy. Whatever the reason, we offer a
digest sized copy of the "Back to Bagels" cookbook for just $10.00 plus
shipping. A digest
sized book is about the size of "The Reader's Digest" or similar sized books.
Or you can fold a piece of letter paper in half along the 11" side. It's a
very convenient size, and a pretty book.

Some people have trouble reading the digest sized books, so we are offering a
full sized book. It costs a bit more to cover imcreased printing costs.
