I see that you maintain yours every 12 hours... yikes! Is there another way to do it that's worked for you? I’d love to try to make these, but I’m intimidated by the starter process.

Bagels will be my New Year's treat. Sad to say, I’ve been neglecting my starter recently, so this gives me a good reason to use it. Bagels will be my New Year’s treat.

I have not tried bagels yet but will soon. I will have to go with the "semolina Bread studded with jewels" myself because I am going to whip out another double batch on the last day of the year 2007. It's going be a third (2nd double batch) bake within 12 days. They are gone as fast as soon as I baked them --well I offered them to friends and they were so happy to have repeats--. I myself alone cannot consume that much bread even if I love eating bread and I do all day long. Hopefully this batch of dough will be mixed in the newly purchased Kitchenaid pro 600 that is on its way to my home. Breakfast of late is usually a plate of assorted toasted of olive-oil drizzled ciabatta, semolina dressed in honey and vermont sd/or pure rye bread with flax seeds...and a big pot of tea. ;o) That was a tough call Susan!

I too am a big fan of the Semolina Bread with Fennel, Currants and Pine Nuts but have been completely incapable of deciding which is "best" from this year in our kitchen! -Elizabeth I bow down to you for having been able to choose!
