Stuffed Bagel Hybrids

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Baogel' is a Bagel and Bao Bun Hybrid from NYC's Black Seed Bagels

— November 1, 2017 — Lifestyle
New York City's Black Seed Bagels and Nom Wah Kaui recently joined forces to introduce the 'Baogel,' a new bread hybrid that draws inspiration from both the bao bun and the bagel. Black Seed Bagels describes: it's a "culinary tale of East meets Eastern Europe."

The Baogel is filled with Nom Wah’s signature sweet pork belly and comes wrapped in Black Seed Bagels' sesame bagel dough that resembles a steamed bao bun. To top it all off, the hybrid is served with a side of house-made chili cream cheese.

Just like an ordinary bagel, the new sandwich-style offering makes a perfect handheld snack for on-the-go eating, except that it does not need to be dressed with any spreads or ingredients for added flavor before eating.
Trend Themes
1. Bread Hybrids - The 'Baogel' is an example of a bread hybrid that combines different culinary influences.
2. Ethnic Fusion - The Baogel represents a fusion of Eastern European and Asian cuisines.
3. Convenient Handheld Snacks - The Baogel offers a convenient, on-the-go option for snacking without the need for additional ingredients.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery - Bakeries can explore creating their own bread hybrids to offer unique and inventive products.
2. Foodservice - Restaurants, cafes, and food trucks can incorporate ethnic fusion dishes like the Baogel to attract customers looking for new and exciting flavors.
3. Food Manufacturing - Food manufacturers can develop convenient handheld snacks that cater to busy consumers seeking quick and easy options.
