My God! I miss a few days of your updates and you're already making bagels Mac! 😱 i meannnn, and I was laughing until yesterday with your incorrigible bread joke on twitter 😅.
Your mom has a bakery right? That's what I understood. Making bread has always seemed super complex to me, actually anything bakery, cakes in my oven, for example, never rise, cookies come out super hard, nothing bakes well for me 🥲.
I've never tried bagels, I think I'll give it a try, as you say, dividing everything into small portions to see if it comes out well first.
Congratulations @macchiata you are closer to a baker's mastery! 👏👏👏
yes, my mom has a bakery and that's why she nags me a lot when I make these breads. She tells me many tricks and tips that I am sharing here 😂. I think if it doesn't rise then it means there's something wrong with your yeast. It's not fun making bread with my mom around because she always say, " that's not how you do it?". " here's the trick" etc etc. But yeah, now I can make some decent bread xD and be proud of it.
