A bublik is a ring-shaped bread roll that originated in Eastern Europe, particularly in Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus. Similar to a bagel, it's made from wheat dough that is boiled before being baked, giving it a chewy texture and a glossy crust. Bubliki are often larger and less dense than bagels, and can be plain or flavored with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, or other toppings. They are a popular street food and are enjoyed both on their own and with various spreads or fillings.
