An old video of Ina Garten cutting a bagel into three slices has resurfaced, sparking a debate among fans. The beloved cookbook author and host of ‘Be My Guest with Ina Garten’ shared her unconventional method of slicing a bagel, opting to divide it into thirds horizontally instead of the traditional halves.
Garten explained that by cutting the bagel into thirds, it creates thinner slices that can be used to make smaller sandwiches. She demonstrated using two of the three slices to create a sandwich with herb cream cheese and smoked salmon. While some viewers praised her technique, others expressed their disapproval, with one commenter stating, ‘Don’t mess with my bagel, I want it all.’
Following the viral video, Food Network shared the clip on TikTok, igniting a flurry of reactions from followers. Some embraced Garten’s approach, hailing it as innovative, while others remained steadfast in their preference for the traditional bagel-cutting method.
Despite the mixed responses, Garten’s loyal fanbase continues to appreciate her culinary wisdom. In a recent Instagram post, she shared tips for preparing flavorful and moist chicken, emphasizing the importance of slightly undercooking the meat and allowing it to rest to retain its juiciness.
As Garten continues to impart her cooking expertise, her fans eagerly anticipate her next culinary revelations and innovative kitchen hacks.
