Best Bagels In Town

Closed - just for today. Way too much snow out there to ask our family and friends to fight through the snow. Be safe and we’ll see you tomorrow.

It’s believed that early bagels in ancient Egypt and the greater Mediterranean came it two types. These was the soft sesame studded variety and also a pretzel-like crispy Syrian version. Interestingly, neither of these were boiled (which is a distinguishing characteristic of American bagels today).

Still a Great Gift idea.

Some believe that the bagel was invented to commemorate the Battle of Vienna in 1683. The Battle, which was won by Poland’s King Jan Sobieski over the Ottoman Turks, inspired a stirrup shaped dough to be made by the Polish bakers.

Did you know that a union just for bagel bakers was formed in 1907? The International Bakers Union joined together 300 bakers. Only sons of union members could be apprenticed to learn the secrets of bagel baking in order to safeguard this culinary art.

Did you know that over a billion dollars a year are spent on bagels in the United States alone? While the most popular form of the bagel remains bagels and cream cheese, other variations include bagels topped with tomatoes, cucumbers, and/or scrambled eggs.

If your bagels have gotten stale earlier than expected, there is a great way to salvage them. Simply dampen them lightly with water and then stick them in the toaster, and they’ll be as good as new.

Until the 1960s, the Local 338 Bagel Bakers, which controlled the production of bagels, provided all of the bagels consumed in New York City. At that point, bagels were not popular in other areas of the country.

Although the New York style bagel is probably the most popular one in the US, different types are enjoyed all over the world. In Russia, for example, a bublik is a large bagel which is slightly chewier than ours. People in Turkey have the acma, a fattier, saltier version.

Our wish for you

There are many theories concerning the origin of the ring shape of the bagel. While some cultures believe this represents good luck, others see it as representative of the continuous cycle of life and death.

If calories are important, but there is no escaping your jonesing for a bagel, slide a schmear of cream cheese across the cut surface, and add an articulation of fruit jam or jelly just a touch. The cream cheese has fewer than half the calories of butter and tastes even better.
