Preheat broiler. Slice bagels crosswise into fifths. In small saucepan, melt butter with garlic and simmer over very low heat 2 minutes or until garlic has softened. Add lemon juice, Tabasco pepper sauce and salt to taste.
Liberally brush one side of each bagel with lemon-garlic butter. Broil bagels on one side until golden. Watch carefully; this takes only a minute.
Turn bagels over and broil until golden.
Serve hot or store in an air-tight container.
Makes 25 bagel thins.
