I’m an 83 year old granny who just started doing sourdough bread a couple of months ago. Made my own starter and this week decided to try bagels. Used your directions and receipt and boy did they come out great. Thanks for your clear instructions. I’ll be making more of these for my family.

I’m a pretty accomplished baker, who has only been messing with sourdough, for about a year. These knocked my socks off! My family is still raving, as well.
You do great work on YouTube. I’ve also made your higher hydration sourdough bread with outstanding results.
I’m going to buy your e-book, because your work deserves to be supported.

I made these and they brought tears to my eyes. Never did I imagine I could make bagels. They were so good! And all I hoped for. The recipe was easy to follow and Provided amazing flavor!
Thank you a million

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!

I wish we could put pictures up on YouTube because I want to show you my bagels they came out amazing!! Thank you for the video!!

Your channel >>> most mainstream cooking/baking channels. Straight to the point, no bullshit and they turned out lovely! Just baked them and so happy with the results. Regards from Sweden!

[yeahyeahyeah]

Such a simple fluent and concise video. Subbed.

[kasiaduch]

Making it now, will come back and report on the results tomorrow!

These are good. Easy! And came out beautiful! I replaced honey with maple syrup And split the dough into 8 bagels instead! Yum!

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.

I almost got discouraged when it wasn’t visibly rising in my bowl… then I went out for 5 hours and couldn’t stare at it and it burst out of the bowl… can’t wait to finish them after the “sit in the fridge” step!

[kratzer-lk]

I made these for the first time yesterday and they are in the fridge waiting to be baked tomorrow morning and CANNOT wait to share at work tomorrow!

Made these today- perfect crunch and texture. Another recipe I tried the day before boiled for 3 minutes on each side and those were too chewy. This method resulted in a perfect bagel. Thanks!

[carriedalton]

ohmygosh --- these came out FANTASTIC! They are beautiful, I wish I could upload a picture. Do you think it would be ok to add in blueberries? I'm going to have to order your e-book for sure, I am so impressed with how these came out!

[JETLFC]

My first time making homemade sourdough bagels, giving your method a go. Dough is bulking now. Enjoying the proces so far. Looking forward to the end result. Great video Grant, thanks

[gloriachambers]

😁Im so glad i found your channel. I wish i would have found it sooner. 2 wks ago) before I started trying to make a sourdough starter(wasted a lot of flour)🙄. It would had made my life easier. Your instructions are uncomplicated and easy to follow. I'm using my starter for the second time and I'm making your bagel recipe. They're baking right now and they look beautiful. I also like the method of keeping just a little starter and feeding it what i will need for the recipe. I'm will be buying your ebook. Thank you ❤
