At Zingerman’s Bakehouse, we make bagels as they were a long time ago—crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, with big flavor, and a hole you can stick your finger through. In this hands-on class, we'll teach you to make great bagels from scratch. You’ll mix your dough, knead it by hand, shape it into rings, then boil and bake your bagels to get just the right texture. You'll choose the toppings for your bagels, too (we recommend poppy seeds, sesame seeds, everything mix, and coarse salt). We’ll also teach you how to make traditional bialys—crispy, chewy rolls with a center of slow-roasted onions and poppy seeds.
Once you've mastered our great go-to recipes, who wouldn’t be impressed waking up to fresh-baked bagels and/or bialys? After all, better bagels and bialys make for better weekends in our book!
You'll leave the BAKE! class with our recipes, the knowledge to recreate them at home, and the bagels and bialys you made in class.
In-Person: We'll end class with a tasting of what we made and you'll go home with some great coupons.
