Instructions

Combine flour, salt, sugar, and yeast in a stand mixer and add barley malt syrup and water. Mix until a stiff dough forms.
Perform the windowpane test to check dough elasticity and continue mixing if needed.
Shape dough into a ball, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.
Prepare baking sheets with parchment and flour, and dust a bowl with flour.
Cut dough into 12 equal portions and shape each into a ball, sealing the bottom by rolling against a surface.
Cover the dough lightly and proof in a warm place until it rises by 50%. Refrigerate for one hour after proofing.
Poke a hole in each dough ball and stretch to form a three-inch opening.
Bring a large pot of water to boil, adding barley malt syrup. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
Boil bagels 30-45 seconds per side in batches. Place on baking sheets and sprinkle with everything seasoning.
Bake bagels for 14-18 minutes until golden brown, then cool on wire racks.

Notes

Proofing the dough in the refrigerator develops flavor and texture.
Add toppings like smoked salmon and capers for a classic New York experience.
Store leftover bagels in a sealed bag to keep them fresh. They can be frozen for longer storage.
