Why This Recipe Works

This classic mix of seeds and dried seasonings is good on more than just bagels and seems to get only more and more popular. Sometimes you can find it at the store, but we prefer to make our own with a short list of common pantry ingredients. We loved this simple mix of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried minced garlic, dried onion flakes, and salt sprinkled on our homemade pigs in blankets, but we’ve since put it on everything from macaroni and cheese to pizza crust. Maybe that gives new meaning to the “everything” in this everything bagel seasoning.
