Holy potatoes! So today I didn't have school (again) and decided to do something worthwhile. Time for some homemade bagels, awwwright. Everything went smoothly except the part about running out of white flour in the middle, but I used wheat flour and yeah, they're probably healthier now anyway. So yeah, you know, I did all the bagely types of things, boiled 'em, did the egg wash...and then it came time to cook them. Now, I am WELL aware that my host family's oven is quite different from mine in America. It has a whole host of weird symbols and buttons on it that don't make any sense to me, but I selected the settings I thought would be most appropriate and popped the bagels in. The recipe called for 35-40 minutes at 400F, but this oven only goes up to 250. Whatevz. Bagels were in and I went about cleaning the kitchen. After NO MORE than three minutes, I began to smell finished bagel. "Well, that's odd," I thought to myself. I opened the oven and lo and behold, the bagels on the top rack were done. DONE! I took them out and inspected them; they were quite browned on the top but the sides and bottom were not as well done. Regardless, I did not want to burn them and so I set them aside. "There is NO WAY these are done," said I. Curious, I took one of them and cut it in half to see if it was still gooey inside. It wasn't. I took a bite. It was cooked all the way through.
THERE ARE DEMONS AND LITTLE SATANS RUNNING AROUND IN THAT OVEN.
