Cheese and chutney bialys

Baker Kitty Tait gives bialys a cheesy twist. Bialys are an Ashkenazi Jewish bake traditionally filled with poppy seeds and slow-cooked onions. . Kitty explains: “A bialy is a beautiful love-child between a pizza and a bagel. You can fill them with anything – sweet, savoury or leftovers.”

Kitty Tait sought solace in baking bread, supported by her father Al, when she fell seriously ill with depression and anxiety. Both found their lives transformed – and now they run The Orange Bakery in Watlington, Oxfordshire together.
