Authentic New York Style Plain Bagels

Experience the authentic taste of New York's iconic bakeries with these traditional plain bagels that bring the bustling energy of the Big Apple straight to your breakfast table. These authentic New York style plain bagels represent a cornerstone of Jewish-American cuisine, crafted using the time-honored boiling and baking method that creates their signature chewy interior and golden, slightly crispy exterior. Unlike regular bread rolls, these bagels feature the classic dense, satisfying texture that New Yorkers have cherished for generations. The plain variety serves as the perfect canvas for both sweet and savory toppings, making them incredibly versatile for any meal of the day. Their distinctive ring shape and substantial bite make them ideal for slicing and toasting, creating the perfect foundation for your favorite spreads and fillings. For the ultimate New York experience, slice these bagels in half and toast them lightly before spreading with cream cheese, lox, capers, and red onion for a classic bagel and lox combination. They're equally delicious with butter and jam for breakfast, or transformed into hearty sandwiches with deli meats, cheese, and vegetables for lunch. These bagels also work wonderfully for making bagel chips when sliced thin and baked until crispy, or can be used in bread pudding recipes for a unique twist on the classic dessert. Store them at room temperature for immediate use, or freeze them for longer storage – simply toast directly from frozen for best results.
