      Hi Grant. I hve never made any sourdough b4 in my life and I am soooo keen to learn how to make the starter. But after going thru the PDF I got many questions. 😊
      How big a bottle shud I use, what if I can't get the type of flour you hve recommended to use for the first starter & others 😢. Is the email an avenue to ask questions pls. Sorry for troubling you.

      Hi Grant. I been watching you're vids since you started, it's great to watch you get more professional as you grow. I bake just like you, as i see it you take a little from each book on sourdough. You know the books. One thing i have found when i add the salt to the water before i add the starter it's a pain to break up the starter. I add water, starter stir in then add the salt after i stir that in then the flour. Give it a try. Love your vids. Thanks Jeff

      Hey, Grant. Can we use sourdough discard in place of starter for this bagel recipe? Trying to make use of the discard but am curious to see if that’ll affect the puffiness of the bagels. Thanks!

    I tried a sourdough bagel recipe last week which required 50g more flour (but has similar water amount as your recipe), it turned out kinda hard to chew. Decided to give bagels another try, and stumbled upon your video. I baked it yesterday and just tried it for breakfast this morning, and they are PERFECTION. Chewy, springy, light. Now I understand the craze over bagels!

    Just some tips:
    1. If you live in the US, you can use All Purpise Flour because it has 11%or more of protein. However, in other countries AP flour does not have enough protein and you must use bread flour.
    2. If your house is colder, you can put your starter in the microwave with the microwave light on and it will create a warmer environment.

Thanks for letting us know that we can substitute with equal part sugar! I actually use (equal part) plain flour to make my bagel and it's just as nice and chewy!

    For the 1st time I used a stiff starter [2:1 Flour/Water] and modified the flour/water in the recipe to reflect that change in the starter. EXACTLY what I was looking for. A chewy crust and soft interior with very little sour flavor. I'll try this again after repeated stiff starter refreshments which should reduce that very slight sour flavor even more. Honey in the main dough and Barley Malt Syrup in the boiling water. Thanks for the recipe!

      I did cinnamon raisin with this recipe, it was so good! I soaked my raisins in boiling water for about 20 minutes. After the bulk fermentation I separated out how much dough I wanted to be cinnamon raisin and mixed cinnamon, sugar, and the soaked raisins into it, then shaped into bagels. I was careful to tuck most of the raisins inside so they wouldn't fall out while boiling or burn while baking.

    Hi Grant or anybody who sees this, so you're doing two double rising? One is the first rise and then once they6re shaped you let them double again? Won't they overproof that way?

    • @quick9smitty511
      @quick9smitty511 4 місяці тому

      You let the ball of dough rise, and when you "disturb" that rise by handling the dough to shape the bagels, you have to let it rise again. i.e. "resume" rising. Because you are working with sourdough (natural yeast) instead of commercial yeast, the rising process is much longer. Then the overnight time in fridge developes the sourdough flavor.Hope that makes sense.

    • @KOHart25

      You can do that. It is just more difficult to remove the warm shaped bagels to boil them. I would actually do what you did then put them back on the fridge to cool so they are easier to handle. I actually refrigerate after the bulk fermentation then shape the next day, rise then back in the fridge until cold.

    Made these for the second time today. They looks pretty good, but I'm finding that 20 minutes on the bottom rack (or middle) is resulting in burnt bottoms. Any advice?

    • @GrantBakes
      @GrantBakes  Місяць тому

      Add a metal sheet pan on the bottom rack and bake the bagels on a sheet pan on the middle rack. The pan on the lower rack should help keep the bagels from burning.

    I have no idea how these don't stick to your pan, I used cornmeal for the barrier and they were absolutely glued to the baking sheet. Horrible. Will definitely go back to using parchment for sourdough bagels.

    If I double the recipe for these bagels, do I have to add 200 g of starter or does the starter stay the same?

      You should double every ingredient in the recipe.

      Agreed, double every ingredient in the recipe. The starter will take a little longer to rise so give it 12 hours or so.

      @@katharineschroeder7421 Ah ok. In that case it seems like the final proof is too long. Could be your kitchen temperature, environment, or some other factor.
      Try cutting the final proof off once you notice the bagels start to get a little bit puffy. Boil them and then bake them after a shorter final proof. This should keep them from deflating, in theory. Best of luck!

    • @SageMamoo
      @SageMamoo 8 місяців тому

      I have done a few things to get my starter more sour.
      1. Allow starter to sit without feeding it until I smell the sourness I want, then feed it and once doubled, use it.
      2. Feed starter, leave it out until it just starts to rise, then refrigerate.
      Cooler Temps = more lacto
      Warmer Temps = more yeasty.
      In recipes, fermentation in the fridge helps develop more flavor so that helps as well

    • @GrantBakes
      @GrantBakes  4 місяці тому +5

      Welcome to homemade food. The good news is you can easily double or triple the recipe to make 12 or 18 in one go. Also, store bought bagels are not made with sourdough so they don’t taste as long to make. The ones in good bagel shops are produced at scale so I’m sure they’re cheaper because of that. Homemade bread definitely takes more time than store bought, so I think the value is in knowing what you’re putting into your body, knowing where your food comes from, appreciating the process and what it takes to make something, being more self-sufficient. Homemade bread often tastes way better than what you get at the store anyway. Not always but often.

    • @debralauesen4225
      @debralauesen4225 3 місяці тому +1

      Plus the bagels you buy in the store aren’t sourdough. If they say sourdough I would guess that they are flavored with sourdough and rise from other ingredients, like baking powder.

      On a scale of 1 to 10, the Bagels came out at about a solid 5. That's not a bad thing considering this is my first attempt. They can only get better. There's always room for improvement!
