Bialys, the bun with a schmear

"Rusty Longtrucks" (a dedicated Unimog aficionado and fellow guitarist) suggested we try making Bialys, sort of a relative of the Bagel but lighter and chewier. Minced onion, bread crumbs, poppy seed and some vegetable oil make up the schmear, a dollop of which goes into ze middle of ze Bialy. Ten minutes on a blistering hearth and they are ready. Mmmm, good for breaky with butter and a cup of coffee. Recipe courtesy of Jeffrey Hamelman's "Bread". Enjoy the pic, inhale the bun.

Cheers!
