[a] Bagel lovers now do have choices. Netherlands Bagels not only offers

the Everything Bagel, an American favorite, but also options that draw

inspiration from Ertrachter’s adopted country, like a Cinnamon Raisin

bagel influenced by oliebollen. Almost all of the bagels are plant-based

vegan, Ertrachter said. “They’re delicious by themselves or with a bit of

schmear!”

[b] “Even if you cannot travel to New York to simply enjoy bagels, our new

bagel business strives to bring a bit of New York to your doorstep,” said

Netherlands Bagels owner Karen Ertrachter. “I started this business

because I was missing the taste of real New York bagels. I’ve modeled my

recipes to match the taste of my favorite bagel store back home as I was

constantly disappointed by the bagel options in the Netherlands.”

[c] Netherlands Bagels was founded by a native New Yorker in the Zuid-

Holland city, and has started weekly shipments of their hand-rolled, boiled

and baked New York-style bagels to homes all across the Netherlands.

You can order online from Sunday through Wednesday for each upcoming

weekend. Netherlands Bagels make them the old-fashioned way just like

you would have in New York.
