Bagels for lechem mishneh

Hi,

We use two whole loaves of bread at our Shabbat meals, as "lechem mishneh", commemorating the double portion of manna given to the Jews in the wilderness before they entered Canaan. Bagels may be used for these loaves; although they have holes, they are formed that way and they are considered complete.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:204:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
