It’s National Bagel Day!
The bagel is a rustic bread concoction with a dense, chewy, doughy interior. Many New Yorkers love to spread cream cheese on top of the bagel and top it with thinly sliced orange salmon called lox, dills, and capers.
It is unknown when this ring-shaped bread originated. The common belief is that the bagel originated in a Jewish Community in Poland, and it became a staple in Polish cuisine around the 16th-17th Century. It was later brought to the U.S. by Polish Jewish immigrants and developed in New York City.
The popularity expanded from there to worldwide as a breakfast and brunch staple.
Known for their brunch with an Asian twist and sourdough bread. Sarnies sourdough bagels are plump and have the perfect tang. Their famous bagels are plain, sesame and chocolate, which you can nibble your bagel with cream cheese, jam of your choice, flavoured butter or any condiment you like. They can also have bagel sandwiches such as Pastrami or/and Smoked Salmon if you’re that hungry.
