TIPS:The dough can be frozen. Remove it from the freezer 2 hours before. Put plenty of flour on the work area when rolling out the dough because it is wet.You can put seeds in the flour (such as pipes, poppy seeds…).Some ingredients can let out a lot of water (such as courgette) and the dough can be soft. Cook the ingredient first and drain it a bit. chef.joana -

It is easy and super quick to make. Most of the ingredients are from vegetables. But you can add chopped shrimp if desired. Of course the taste will be very different. Shrimp will provide a richer taste. Sometimes I add minced or chopped shrimp. But to be safe most often I make it without shrimp. Because some of my friends are allergic to shrimp and some are vegetarian. So let’s take a look for the ingredients and how to make it! Nia Hiura -

Tofu Bagel with More Tofu than Bread Flour!! Tofu Bagel with More Tofu than Bread Flour!!
I bought two packs of tofu (200 g each) so I made bagels using an entire pack of tofu and as little flour as possible. 1 bagel is roughly 195 kcal if you make 4, and 260 kcal each is you make 3.Use either silken or firm tofu. If you use firm tofu, e adjust the straining time because it tends to lose more water. Since there is tofu in the recipe, the bagels will rise without proofing. Recipe by cocococoa cookpad.japan
