A bagel a day keeps the sadness away

I fell in love with bagels just during the pandemic. There was only one place serving bagels and it wasn’t that popular. Even these days, where I used to live, bagels are slowly gaining more popularity. So, it’s not that easy to find unlike in some countries.

Once I got to taste bagels, I just couldn't stop eating them. 2 years ago, three plain bagels cost about $4. If you add some bacon or any fillings and sauces, that’s around $6/bagel. Costly isn’t it?

So, at one point I learned how to make it. I wasn’t as good as today though because I followed a recipe from Joshua Weissman without thinking of my environment and temperature. You can see how complicated the process was in this blog A Classic Homemade Bagel Recipe. Long story short, today I finally made a real bagel, a good one that’s rising and not too complicated.

I use taro flavorings in some of my bagels for the fun of it. That is why they have that purple color to it. You can definitely skip that and go with the plain ones. You can halve them and also fill it with any fillings you like. I was using mayo because that’s all I have. Bagel is a very versatile bread that’s so filling and great to pair with other savory ingredients and even sweet ones.

Today I was pairing it with cinnamon latte. To make this latte all you have to do is simply simmer a stick of cinnamon in your preferred milk. Then brew the coffee and add the infused cinnamon into the mixture. They are best served hot and so good when it’s combined with these homemade bagels.

I've never tried bagel kak cem😁 so this looks so tempting😅

I guess that flavoring is similar to ours here which is called ube flavoring as it also has purple color. I'm sure this bagel is tasty, good for eating any time of the day. The thought of drinking cinnamon latte paired with this soft and delicious bagel is heavenly.
