I keep seeing this overnight recipe around the internet; I found a less-than-two-hour recipe that makes terrific, chewy bagels and is based on the same principles – I think the real issue in getting the chew is making sure you have enough gluten in your dough, and kneading the dough (or letting the Kitchenaid knead it ) for a full ten minutes or more.

[...] Smitten Kitchen has had a couple of Peter Reinhart recipes on her site. And I’ve made them: the bagels I shared with you, and some light wheat bread. I knocked the bagels out of the park. But the light wheat bread [...]
