Montreal Bagel

Cultural Context

Originating from Eastern European Jewish communities, Montreal bagels are smaller, denser, and sweeter than their New York counterparts, often boiled in honey-sweetened water before baking. They are traditionally baked in wood-fired ovens, giving them a unique flavor and texture. Montreal bagels are a beloved staple in the city, often enjoyed fresh with cream cheese or smoked salmon, and have gained popularity across North America.
