NATIONAL BAGEL And LOX DAY – February 9

Bagels are one of the few breads that are boiled then baked. This creates a soft inside while keeping a crisp outside. Bagels appeared in Poland in the early 17th century and now sell over a billion dollars in the United States each year.

The art of making lox by curing salmon in a salt brine for several months has been perfected by Scandinavians. The salmon's fatty belly gives the result in a buttery, silky texture that goes well with cream cheese and bagels.

Many varieties and varieties of bagels have emerged throughout the United States over the years. Cream cheese is a common topping on bagels.
