English muffin English muffin

　　Basic ingredients: milk, flour, salt, yeast, a small amount of butter or vegetable oil, sticky cornmeal on the surface and bake it

　　Texture and taste: more Chewy, generally benedict in the brunch store Egg is placed on this, but I always feel that the restaurant is too salty and has no facial fragrance, I don''t like it. In addition, Mcmuffin is a simplified version of this benedict.

　　Pretzel German soda bread

　　Basic raw materials: water, flour, salt, yeast, traditionally used soda (sodium carbonate), but because of its strong corrosiveness, the family is generally Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) will do.

　　Texture and taste: The epidermis is very chewy and the crumbs are very soft, very similar to the bagel mentioned below. However, because it will be briefly scalded in the boiling water of soda before baking, due to the millarde Maillard reaction (the browning reaction produced by the heating of carbohydrates and proteins, baking soda will speed up this reaction), the skin appears very beautiful Brown.

The word 　　Pretzel also stands for the cooking method that first passes the alkali water and then roasts, so sometimes when you go to the burger restaurant you will see pretzel Roll/bun this option, you may wish to buy it to try, because that kind of strong but without losing the delicate taste of other types of bread is difficult to achieve.

　　In addition to the traditional German style, there is a type of so-called "soft pretzel" or "mall pretzel" or "butter" represented by Auntie Anne in the United States. "pretzel", this is also delicious, but the ingredients are added with butter, sugar, spices, etc. So it is not so healthy and natural, everyone think about it!

　　Pretzel is usually sprinkled with coarse salt on the surface, personally Very disgusting, so I manually deducted it every time...

　　 From the taste, pretzel does have a special salty and chemical taste when it is eaten because of the alkaline water, but once used to this taste You will fall in love with this bread completely, especially with high-quality butter in the middle.

　　 Everyone must have seen the kind of cookies in the upper right corner, they are also called pretzel, because the method of making is basically complete It’s the same, but they’re baked. Similarly, I especially hate the salt on the surface. I also eat it off, but I’m still crazy about it, so I haven’t had any good feelings.

　　 Bagel bagel bread/hard Bagels

　　Basic ingredients: water, flour, salt, yeast, a small amount of sugar

　　Texture and taste: The skin is slightly chewy and the inside is soft, but it is more dense , So very hungry. There are various flavors, my personal favorite is the original flavor, thick noodles. There is also a mysterious flavor called "everything", which is actually a series of small nuts such as sesame, poppy seeds , Cumin seeds and dried onion, a bit of onion flavor, I think it is average, but there are many loyal fans, curious students can try it.

　　 The classic match is cream Cheese, students who haven''t tasted this classic match must try it, the creamy cream cheese and the sweet bread are particularly beautiful. At the same time, bagel is also a good choice of sandwich bread, but it is slightly higher in calories than ordinary sandwich bread or burrito.
