Check out Bagel’s Other Flavour Exploits Around the Globe:
Have You Seen This Bagel? Last seen in Dubai posing as a high-roller at a five-star dessert lounge. By morning, the pastry kitchen was in disarray! A tray of white chocolate missing, a trail of chopped pistachio crumbs, and a stash of ube nowhere to be found. A bellhop later reported sampling the contraband himself: a silky white chocolate and ube schmear, topped with crushed pistachios.
Have You Seen This Bagel? Last spotted in the Joseon Dynasty, making off with King Sejong’s prized recipe. Witnesses report the King was so distraught he cancelled three royal banquets, wrote a very stern decree, and ordered the palace guards to check every toaster in the kingdom. The stolen schmear? A savoury cream cheese spread with umami gochujang, pickled cucumber, and fragrant dill.
