Bread: Pretzels, bagels & bread rolls

Small hand-sized breads are made in many cultures. Easily portable, and with plenty of that all-important crust, they are more than simply smaller versions of a full loaf. Pretzels and bagels are famous for their chewy crumb, and their shiny surface with its particular texture – the result of boiling prior to baking. Whether dipping in soup, or filling with lox and schmear, there is a bread roll to suit. This collection forms part of An introduction to Bread.
