Jerusalem bagel

It has a ring shape but is otherwise unlike a traditional boiled bagel.

[1] Popularly known as "beigaleh," it is based on the ka'ak bread ring sold in markets throughout the Middle East.

[2] Typically, this is a yeasted, crusty bread which is shaped into an oblong ring and covered in sesame seeds.

Initially, the ka'ak was part of a complete meal consisting of rice and meat, but over time it evolved into a main dish consumed by Palestinian and Israeli residents of the city.

Over time, the shape of Jerusalem Ka'ak or Jerusalem Bagel changed from a round shape without a hole to one with a hole, and eventually to its current rectangular form.
