📝 Preparation Steps
1
activate yeast
2
Sprinkle yeast over warm water and stir to dissolve. Wait ⏱️ 10 minutes for it to foam. Then add 2 TB sugar, oil, 6 cups flour, and salt. Mix thoroughly until dough forms and leaves sides of bowl - this is easier with stand mixer.

knead
4
Turn dough onto lightly floured board and knead. Add small amounts of remaining flour, if needed. Dough will be rather stiff. Knead until smooth and elastic - roughly ⏱️ 15 minutes.
5
let rise
6
Roll dough into ball and place in oiled bowls, turning to coat. Spray with additional oil if needed to get dough ball covered in oil. Cover with damp cloth. Let rise for about an hour in warm, draft-free place. An impression made with finger should not sink into dough.

shape
10
Lightly oil hands and gently press thumb into center of a dough ball. Gently swing the dough around your finger to make a bagel shape, without ripping the dough. Make walls about 1 inch thick, with a 2-inch diameter hole in each ball. Put each bagel back under a damp towel as you complete shaping the rest of the dough balls.

While bagels are resting, fill 4 qt saucepan almost full of water. Add 1 TB sugar and bring to boil. Drop 2 or 3 bagels at a time into boiling water and wait until they rise. Boil for about ⏱️ 1 min per side.
