The bagel with cream cheese and lox has a rich history dating back to the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe. This iconic dish gained popularity in New York City, where Jewish immigrants brought their culinary traditions. Lox, a brined salmon, was a staple in their diet, and when paired with cream cheese and a freshly baked bagel, it created a beloved classic. Today, renowned delis like Russ & Daughters in NYC are celebrated for their exceptional versions of this dish. The key to a perfect bagel with cream cheese and lox lies in the quality of the ingredients, especially the silky smooth cream cheese and the thinly sliced, flavorful lox.
