what temperature to bake a bagel
Be sure to evenly space out the bagels. STEP 2: Proof the bagels overnight in a walk-in refrigerator (generally 12 to 18 hours). The ideal temperature range is 36 degrees to 48 degrees Fahrenheit. STEP 3: Once the bagels are proofed, place the bagels in boiling water (ideally in a bagel kettle) for 10 to 20 seconds. STEP 4: Immediately after boiling the bagels, place the bagels on bagel boards. If you are making seeded bagels, remember to layer the board with seeds prior to placing the bagels on the board.
