Nothing like it, they say. A beloved street food, these \u201cTurkish bagels\u201d entice passers-by to grab them from little trolleys, or from vendors carrying them on wooden sticks or on trays balanced on top of their heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Out of the blue, Ruth surprised us with a simit (the word is both singular and plural) from a local bakery. While simit looks rather bagel-ish, it has little of the heft of a bagel. It nearly levitates off your plate. Its chewy crust, which tickles your tongue with subtle sweetness, encases a fluffy interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hooked, we had to make simit a part of everyday snack life. And happily, it\u2019s simple, fast (for a yeast bread) and quite fun to make.

The dark color, hint of sweetness, and crunchy crust come from dunking the dough into a molasses bath before dredging in sesame seeds. A last-minute misting with water turns the crust extra crispy. If you don\u2019t have a spray bottle, it\u2019s worth getting one just for this. With CVS coupons, ours cost less than two dollars.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And while we\u2019re talking money, watch where you buy your sesame seeds.
