Sourdough Bagels

Using a great recipe I found online, I made sourdough bagels. The process started yesterday when I put together the dough, using my dough hook on my Kitchenaid. It was incredibly stiff and I'm impressed I didn't burn out my motor. I then shaped them into balls, poked a hole in the center, and placed them on the baking sheet in the refrigerator to retard overnight. It helps develop the sour flavor. This morning I boiled them briefly, then baked. They came out gorgeous, and I'm toasting one up now for breakfast!
