Today i had malt powder, and I added an egg wash. They look much better than last week's batch.

I think i will try and find some malt syrup to add to the water they boil in, the powder made a heck of a mess with it.

I just looked it up, and baking soda in the boiling water will give you closer to a pretzel outcome for the outside of your bagels. The PH change of the water helps the outside brown more.
