The pride of Soviet cooking is bagels. Although this type of pastry was officially invented in Austria, yet in our country it gained special popularity. In
many ways, the relevance of bagels among Soviet housewives is due to the filling that was added inside the dessert. In the homeland, bagels were prepared with jam, poppy seeds and chocolate. In the USSR, bagels were mainly made with boiled condensed milk. It
is believed that the pastry began to be prepared in 1686
.
The date is associated with the liberation of Buda from the Ottoman Empire. But, after a while, this myth was debunked
. Let’s make delicious bagels with a classic filling.
