Ah...thoughts of bagels

In response to Steve's outcry for bagel therapy may I suggest you 
check out Nancy Silverton's recipe in Breads from The La Brea Bakery 
(easily found in libraries or bookstores).

I'm originally from Brooklyn where we had local bagel/bialy bakeries 
in the neighborhood between other little storefront businesses. After 
leaving NYC in 1990 I too suffered from lack of credible bagels. The 
closest I've ever produced were Nancy's bagels, which rose slowly 
overnight in the refrigerator before plunging into the bath and bake. 
They have a depth of flavor and chewiness that is often lacking in 
the commercial mass produced versions found around here (FL).

Try it, you'll like it.
