Give your bread a name and tell us about your recipe.

Choco-Cherry Bagels / Asiago Beef Stick Bagels

Would you describe yourself as a rogue baker, or do you strictly adhere to the recipe?

Rogue-ish. The recipe is a guide, but good to get the basics down before going too wild and crazy.

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist to your bread creation.

Our Choco-Cherry Bagels feature Wisconsin Cherries. The spicy beef sticks and asiago cheese were both purchased from the farmers’ market. Honestly, these bagels are some of my best tasting bakes ever. Out of the oven, my wife and I made sandwiches using beef/cheese bagels and they were close-your-eyes-say-nothing kind of good. We are so NOT sharing these. Sorry!

How did you do?

It’s perfect – and I’m not sharing!
