Why is a bagel priced at HKD$25?

In Hong Kong, 25 dollars can buy five pineapple buns, three sausage buns, and two bags of square bread, but only one bagel, and that's an unfilled one. Seeing this, some people will probably say, "Is that stupid? Why are they so expensive?" To find out the reason, read on.

What exactly is a bagel? This round, doughnut-shaped loaf of bread, first found in Jewish society four hundred years ago, has become a popular bread in New York City, with bagel shops popping up everywhere. Hong Kongers love its firm, chewy, and naturally fermented bread. Paired with a variety of creamy cheese spreads and a variety of fillings, such as smoked salmon and pastrami, the bagel offers a unique flavor.

Why are our bagels absolutely worth $25? First, making them involves a complex process that takes longer than regular bread. The dough undergoes 18 hours of cold fermentation. Before baking, the dough is scalded with hot water to stop the fermentation. Then, it's scalded in cold water. The heat expansion and contraction create a denser, chewier texture.

While bagels are made with simple ingredients—bread flour, water, maltose, fresh yeast, and salt—the quality of the ingredients directly impacts their taste. Therefore, we primarily use the highest-quality imported ingredients, without any additives or enhancers, ensuring our customers' peace of mind and health. This is precisely why each bagel, made with genuine ingredients, leaves a satisfying feeling.

Thirdly, our bags are all freshly baked in a local factory and are entirely handmade. The moisture and temperature of the dough are carefully controlled by our experienced craftsmen, and each bagel, in its various shapes, is a meticulously crafted work of art.

After reading this article, do you have a deeper understanding of bagels? What you're buying for $25 isn't just a solid, chewy bagel; it's also a testament to the appreciation of artisan bread and the sincerity of its meticulous craftsmanship.
