Access to Online New York Bagel Baking Course and Recipes
Step into a New York City bagel shop for a hands-on baking experience at the heart of the city's bagel culture. Your experience begins with a warm welcome and casual icebreaker, then an award-winning baker guides you through the classic rope-and-loop rolling technique—a skill you'll quickly put to use as you roll at least six bagels from scratch. Next, you'll watch a dough-making demonstration revealing the building blocks of every great bagel, then learn how boiling and seeding give the New York bagel its iconic texture and taste—doing each step yourself with your instructor's guidance. Between dough stages, you'll go behind the scenes of a bagel shop producing around 10,000 bagels a day—seeing commercial bagel-making up close while your instructor walks you through the bagel's history, from its Polish origins to the rise of the Bagel Bakers' Union and the modern New York bagel era. The experience wraps with a group tasting of your freshly baked bagels alongside gourmet spreads, smoked fish, and classic accompaniments—plus a light-hearted bagel trivia quiz to cap things off. You'll head home with at least 6 bagels, the recipe, and everything you need to make them again.

Great experience, the people make this so FUN!

This experience was fantastic, we had the pleasure of learning from Brandon, John, and Sami and can't say enough about this crew. First we were very late to the class but they were very accommodating and couldn't have been nicer. Drinks are offered in the class then you listen, learn, and most importantly have fun. The class itself is great, but the people are what really make it exceptional. We stayed busy on different excursions throughout our NYC trip but our family thought this was one o...read more

Fun and different large group fun event

I booked a large group for the bagel making class in midtown. It was a very unique experience! Our team had a blast, we learned a lot about the history of bagels, and got to take a bunch of our own creations home. It was a great value, I highly recommend it!

Ate my bagels for breakfast

My husband loves to cook and bake so this was perfect. We made enough bagels to take home 12 with us. I had two for breakfast and they were awesome. Sam loves what he does and it shows. The time went by fast. My bagels were delicious. The history of bagels was even very interesting. You get to actually roll and form the bagels, then get to boil them before you coat them in your choice of various seeds or seasoning. Then they get baked. Before you leave with your fresh bagels, Sam and Reva cook u...read more

A must do!

What a unique experience to roll, boil, season and bake your own bagels! It was such a blast. The staff was super friendly and we learned a lot too! Then….we got to eat them! Delicious! Everyone left with their creations to take home. It was a truly fun and entertaining time!

Fun and tasty bagel making class!

The New York bagel making workshop was really fun and informative. It was especially interesting to be able to make bagels in an actual working bagel bakery, using the same equipment that professionals use like the giant boiling pot, bagel boards and the bagel oven. We really enjoyed the history lesson too from Jason, getting a sneak peek into the giant fridge holding racks of thousands of bagels and watching professional bagel-maker Reva deftly roll perfectly shaped bagels. The bagel feast w...read more
