Thank you so much for this great episode; it is super helpful and clear for the shaping. I just tried bagels yesterday and I am pleased overall. I will be doing my second batch today.
Thanks Lillian! You can mix this by hand. It is harder to mix stiff doughs by hand so you could increase the hydration up to about 60% to make it easier. The rye levain is a great way to add whole grains to your baking and will change the flavour of the bagel. Using a rye levain is also a great way to diversify your baking. You could also use a white levain if you'd like. Happy baking 😃
Really nice, Matthew! I've got to try this. Can that Sil-pat be cut if I wanted to custom make a large sling for lowering the dough into the dutch oven? Can the KD-7000 or KD-8000 accurately weigh 1 gram? Someone said they start weighing with 2 grams. Thank you very kindly, Matthew!
Hey Barry, yes they can be cut in half. They tend to not keep as long once cut but it does work. You could also just try parchment paper but make sure to dust with cornmeal or semolina first as the paper will stick to the bagels. My scale can weigh 1g but if I need to weigh something like dry yeast I would use a different scale that can read .1 of a gram.
Hi would it be ok to sub honey for malt? Also I usually mix multiple grains . WW, spelt Rye and sometimes even buckwheat. Will this process work with that mixture. Of course larger percentage of bread as well

Happy to hear that! Happy baking 😎
Pure gold!
Great video, great editing.
Great video ! Love it dude 💕❤️👏🏼
Thank you!
WOW amazing,
Great video! Two questions: 1) Why a rye levain? 2) Can the dough be mixed by hand?
