Old-World New York Bagels by Hand with Jeff Cooperman + Lauren McGrath | AFTERNOON SESSION

Few foods are as deeply woven into New York's story as the bagel. In this hands-on class, we'll make traditional New York bagels from scratch, mixing, shaping, boiling and baking them the old-fashioned way while exploring their remarkable journey through New York City's immigrant communities and culinary history. You'll learn the techniques behind a great bagel's distinctive crust, chew and flavor, plus how to make the world's best cream cheese schmear. Part baking class, part food history, and entirely delicious, you'll leave with the recipe, the skills to recreate them at home and a half dozen bagels to take home!
