Bagels with lox is a popular dish that combines a bagel, a type of round bread with a hole in the middle, with lox, which is thinly sliced cured salmon. The bagel is often toasted and can be spread with cream cheese, adding a creamy texture that complements the salty flavor of the lox. This dish is commonly enjoyed as a breakfast or brunch item, especially in Jewish cuisine. It can be garnished with various toppings, such as capers, red onions, and tomatoes, enhancing the overall taste and presentation. Bagels with lox are a staple in many delis and cafes.
