Yes, I'll Eat it in a Box, Yes I'll Eat it with a Fox: The San Diego Lox Bagel
The word "lox" originates from "laks" in Yiddish, and we love that this recipe has become such a favorite among breakfast-goers. The Lox Bagel traces back its roots to Scandinavia, where masterful fishermen would preserve their daily catch of salmon in a saltwater brine. Preserving salmon in this fashion would be adopted by Eastern Europeans and eventually become a staple in Jewish culture. Curing salmon was crucial to preserving salmon long before refrigeration was available.
At Wildflour, we cure our salmon in-house and cut it ourselves. We love it on top of a Best Friend's Bagel, which we split open and sear on the plancha before we lather it in cream cheese and garnish it with pickled red onions, fried capers and radish sprouts. The flavors that come through are both tangy and savory, leaving your tastebuds delighted and stomach satisfied.
Our delicious San Diego lox bagel would have made it into Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham had he had the chance to try our simple but enjoyable breakfast. Enjoy this Liberty Station lox bagel with one of our famous matchas or lattes and we promise you won't be disappointed. Because, in honor of the La Jolla legend- Dr. Seuss himself, the short answer is Yes- we would eat in a box, and we would eat it with a fox. It leaves quite an impression, our Wildflour lox bagel, and we'd pick this San Diego breakfast over green eggs and ham any day.
Wildflour is open for breakfast and coffee service Wednesday through Sunday, from 8am to 2pm. Swing by Wildflour or order for takeout on DoorDash or UberEats. We love recipes that are simply delicious and tell stories. Our Wildflour Lox Bagel gladly does both.
