For a richer flavor, try using caramelized onions in the filling. If you don't have onion juice, you can blend a small onion and strain the pulp to extract the juice. Bialys are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days or frozen for longer storage. Reheat before serving. Make sure your yeast is active for the best results. If it doesn't foam after dissolving in warm water, it may be expired. Be careful not to over-knead the dough, as this can make the bialys tough.
