Bread Machine Basic Bagels

Recipe By : More Electric Bread
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Abm Breakfast
Electric Bread

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/8 cups water — lukewarm
3 cups white bread flour
3 1/3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast

1. Insert ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer’s instruction
s. Remove the dough from the machine after the first knead – approximately 20
to 30 minutes.

2. Place dough on a floured surface. Divide into 8 parts. Form balls, gently
press thumb through center of ball and slowly stretch into bagel shape.

3. While bagels rise, bring three quarts of water and one tablespoon of sugar
to a rapid boil in a large saucepan. Drop test dough (see hints below).

4. Using a slotted spoon, drop 2-3 bagels into rapidly boiling water. Boil on
each side for 1/2 minutes. Remove and cool on rack 1 minute, brush with egg
and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, if desired.

5. Bake at 400 on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal, until golden – appro
ximately 15 minutes.

** Bagel Success Hints

** When forming the bagels, set aside two 1/4″ balls of dough. When the bagels
have doubled in size, drop the test dough into boiling water. The dough shoul
d pop to the top right away. When this happens, it is time to boil the bagels.

** A quick spray of non-stick vegetable coating on the top of the bagel may be
substituted for the egg wash.

** To make bagel sticks, cut bagel before rising and lay out in a straight line
. Roll sticks in a combination of sesame and poppy seeds with a pinch of garl
ic powder. Let sticks rise, boil, and bake as described in the above direction
s.

** To make bagel chips, slice leftover bagels horizontally into thin slices. B
ruish with butter or margarine on one side. Lay (butter side up) on an ungreas
ed cookie sheet and bake at 325 for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

BERNAISE SAUCE – GREAT CHEFS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 2 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Sauces

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1/2 lb Butter
4 lg Egg yolks, at room
— temperature
1 1/2 tb Sauce, Worcestershire
2 tb Wine, red
1 pn Pepper, cayenne
2 tb Wine, Chablis
Salt (to taste)
1 tb Wine, white
2 ts Tarragon, dried, finely
— crumbled

Melt the butter in a skillet over a medium flame.
Do NOT burn the butter. When the butter is completely
melted, remove the skillet from the burner.

Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, Worcestershire
sauce, red wine and cayenne pepper in the top of a
double boiler. The water in the bottom pan should not
touch the top pan and should be simmering, not rapidly
boiling.

Using a wire whisk, beat the egg-yolk mixture
until it thickens and a sheen forms, approximately 3
minutes, but no more than 5 minutes.

In a slow, steady stream, begin adding the melted
butter with a ladle, whipping it with a wire whisk.
Continue until all of the butter has been added.

Add the Chablis and whip well. The sauce should
be light and fluffy.

In a small saucepan heat 1 tablespoon white wine
and the tarragon leaves until the liquid evaporates.
Remove from the heat and add to the sauce, mixing well.

Hold the sauce at room temperature until serving
time.
