make your own bagels.

I love bagels. And you know what? 14 months abroad would've been so much easier to get through if I had had the "Parisian Bagel Recipe" back then.

My Saturday-morning bagel creations weren't of standard shape, coloration or size, but they were consistently crusty and delicious, and just airy enough.

I found the recipe via NSH, who directed me to this neat Slate article about make-your-own kitchen staples. Next up: yogurt. Thanks!
