Bagels are famous American ring-shaped buns. Today this dish is traditional in the United States of America, but the authorship still belongs to the Jews. At the beginning of the twentieth century, they fled from persecution to America and brought with them a recipe for this pastry. Usually they are cut in two and filled with some kind of fillings. It is delicious to use juicy and soft bagels along with coffee.
