Not having any comparison to a New York kosher bakery all I can do is offer
my objective analysis.

WOW!

These absolutely ROCK. The bread is very light and soft and has an
addictive sweet/salt on the tongue flavor. They have a delightful
chewiness that is very satisfying. Then you have the salty, oniony, poppy
seedy delight in the center. I ate one and found that if I scooped a tiny
bit out with a spoon and then spread it on the impending morsel made for a
very delightful taste sensation. I was afraid it would be too salty but
it's just right.

I absolutely love these delightful rolls. Pity I am diabetic or I'd eat
them all tonight. I wll be making these many more times. So easy to make,
as well. Not even a little work. I highly recommend you try them if like
me you never heard of them until last week.

Next up, lox and cream cheese.

They look good.

They look real. Except that they seem to lack a dusting of flour, they
look like what I try to make. Have you read Mimi Sheraton's "The Biali
Eaters"?

I passed on the rye flour dusting. Way expensive for a bag. Besides, raw
flour kind of is to my tongue like fingernails to a blackboard are to my
ears.

Rye is traditional, but a smidgeon of wheat is better than nothing at
all. By the time it comes out of the oven, the flour isn't raw any
more.

I don't use much flour to start with so having wheat around is every bit as
wasteful as rye. But yeah, they'd probably have a nicer flavor that way.

Try corn meal on the bottom. That does show up often. I cannot say
that I have even been able to discern rye used at Kossar's lately.

There just are not too many places around that still make them in
NYC...Kossars, of course, but no other of the older bakeries are left.

Bread is just so satisfying. Never knew why, it just is. I would take a
job as a bread baker if I was offered one.

Have you worked with sourdough? That's pretty fun too!

Yeah it is. I killed my starter though and I never got over it.

I'm glad they were such a success! I think I'll make some this winter for
old times sake.
