    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    4 1/4           cups  all-purpose flour
    4 1/2      teaspoons  active dry yeast -- (2 pkg)
    1 1/2           cups  water -- (110F/45C)
    3        tablespoons  granulated sugar
    1         tablespoon  salt
    1         tablespoon  granulated sugar

1.  In large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour and yeast. Mix water, 3 
tablespoons sugar and salt together, and add to the dry ingredients. 
Beat with a mixer for half a minute at a low speed, scraping the 
sides of the bowl clean. Beat at a higher speed for 3 minutes. Then, 
by hand, mix in enough flour to make a moderately stiff dough.

2.  Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth 
and elastic (8-10 minutes). Cover, let rest for 15 minutes.

3.  Cut into 12 portions, shape into smooth balls. Poke a hole in the 
center with your finger, and gently enlarge the hole while working 
the bagel into a uniform shape. Cover, let rise 20 minutes.

4.  Meanwhile, start a gallon of water boiling. Put 1 tablespoon of 
sugar in it, mix it around a bit. Reduce to simmering.

5.  When the bagels are ready, put 4 or 5 bagels into the water, and 
cook 7 minutes, turning once. Drain them. Place on a greased baking 
sheet, and bake at 375F (190C) for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from 
oven, eat hot or cold.

6.  Broiling option: For a glossier surface, place raised bagels on 
an ungreased baking sheet prior to boiling them. Broil them 5" from 
heat for 1 to 1-1/2 minutes on each side. Then put them into the hot 
water to be boiled as above. Note: do not bake broiled bagels as long 
as non-broiled ones, 25 minutes should be long enough.
