What is a bialy bagel?

A bialy is a type of bread product similar to a bagel, originating from Poland. However, unlike a traditional bagel, a bialy has a flat, round shape with a depressed center instead of a hole. The center of a bialy is typically filled with ingredients such as onions, garlic, poppy seeds, or other savory toppings.

Bialys are often baked and served as a breakfast or snack food, either eaten plain or filled with butter, cream cheese, or various spreads. They have a chewy texture and a slightly sweet taste, making them a popular choice for those looking for a tasty and satisfying bread product.

Bialys can be found in many bakeries and specialty food shops, and are a delicious alternative to traditional bagels for those looking to try something different. They are also sometimes referred to as "bialys" or "bialystokers" in reference to the Polish city of Bialystok, where they are said to have originated.
