Dissolve yeast and sugar in lukewarm water.

Combine the yeast mixture with sifted flour, salt, and other ingredients.

Beat the mixture well until a dough forms.

Knead the dough until it is smooth and soft.

Let the dough rest for 10 minutes, without letting it rise significantly.

Pinch off pieces of dough.

Roll each piece into a rope approximately 1/2 inch thick and 6 inches long.

Attach the ends of the rope to form a bagel shape.

Place the bagels on a greased cookie sheet.

Brush the bagels with the egg yolk-water mixture.

Sprinkle the bagels with coarse salt.

Bake in a preheated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes.

Bake until the bagels are golden brown.
