Servings: Makes two bagels of approximately 400 g each

Ingredients

500 g type 0 flour
7 g fresh brewer's yeast
100 ml room-temperature water
160 ml milk (plant-based or dairy)
25 g sugar
10 g salt
Sesame seeds
2 tablespoons baking soda

Instructions

Sift the flour into a large bowl.
Add the yeast, almost all the water, and the milk.
Mix well with a large spoon or with a stand mixer.
Add the sugar and mix.
Add the salt and the remaining water. Knead thoroughly until you obtain a smooth, homogeneous dough.
Shape it into a ball.
Transfer it to a bowl, cover it, and let it rest for 1 hour inside the turned-off oven.
After that time, place the bowl in the refrigerator and let it rest for 1 more hour.
Remove it from the refrigerator and place the dough on a work surface. Divide the dough in two. With the palms of your hands, roll each piece out until you form a smooth strip about 80 cm to 1 m long.
Form two ovals and place each one on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Dissolve two tablespoons of baking soda in a cup of water.
Brush the surface of each oval.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over each one. Cover and let rest in the turned-off oven for 2 hours.
Remove from the oven after the resting time. Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F).
Bake for 10 minutes, lower the temperature to 200°C (390°F), and bake for another 10 minutes. Let cool and enjoy with your favorite accompaniment.

Enjoy your meal!
