Bagels for breakfast

For a while I have been trying to make decent Bagels, with mixed results.  I hope that the cinnamon and raisin one I donated to Dave and Lorna didn't result in any broken teeth. 
Today's batch were cooked using a blend of recipes but as with all true Bagels they were boiled in water before baking.  Admittedly I need to do a bit of work on the shaping of the ring but the taste is great, hard crust with a chewy inside as I believe they should be.  If they ain't boiled they are just "a roll with a hole".  To be fair they are a bit of a faff but then at home just now with time on my hands it passes the afternoon.
For those of you interested my recipe is at Bagel Recipe
