My mom used to "refresh" a leftover portion of italian bread from a night or two before, by putting it in tin foil; sprinkling some water in the tin foil, loosely close the tin foil into a bag and bake in the oven for a few minutes. It made it soft and warm again with that just baked texture like you describe in your instructions for frozen bagels.

It really works. Times may vary depending on the power of the microwave. I wish I was there to give a demonstration.

The last time I was there I asked them about bialys and I was told that it was difficult to make a good bialy in this summer heat and humidity. They were going to try and have them in the fall and winter.

Thanks for the info. about this place. I will have to try it when I return to TV in October.
RichieLion -- this place owes you about a year's worth of free bagels. |

Richie, I happen to love DD's "donut-shaped bread", so I didn't know if I would like Brooklyn Water Bagels but decided to try them anyway.
So....now I'm a fan. I'll be going back again (and again and again) |

Glad you tried them out. That is what a bagel is supposed to taste like. It's supposed to have a firm crust and a dense but still tender inside. The trick is in the proper dough and then in the boiling first (with the right water) and then the baking. Once you become a real bagel place fan, the next step is to find out if your prefer them "light" or "dark", which is determined by how long they were left in the ovens. The store's are usually happy to give you what you prefer. I like them lighter, while my wife likes them a little darker.

Just tried one of their bagels, poppy seed. Now this Irish kid from the wilds of New Hampshire is far from an expert on bagels but lemme tell ya, it was wicked good. Best bagel I've ever had.

Bagels
I LOVE Onion bagels....this place only makes onion with Poppy. Can't have seeds. Wouldn't you think these places would get wise to the fact that they are dealing with a mostly "senior" population? Lots of people develop Diverticulitis as they age and cannot have seeds. Ran into the same problem at Panera. My husband ordered a sandwich and it also had seeds inside it..

I moved from Florida to NJ and was introduced to bagels. To me they were a stale donut. The good thing was they had the same texture and consistency on day two as they had on day one. They never got stale!
Since then I have come to enjoy a warm bagel with butter and jelly. Albertson's used to carry a jalapeño bagel. Best in the area. Up in NJ I liked the rye bagel with Cinnamon and raisins. I will try Brooklyn Water Bagels to see if they remind me of the NJ bagels.
