Montreal bagel
Wood-oven boiled ring
A Montreal bagel is a style of bagel originating in Montreal, distinguished from the New York variety by its smaller size, larger hole, sweeter dough (made with egg and honey), and wood-fired baking.
The result is denser, chewier, and slightly sweeter: I prefer Montreal bagels to New York ones.
Sesame and poppy seed are the traditional varieties.
