Pretzel Dough

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Allow to sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour.

  3. 3

    Shape the Pretzels

    Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). After dough has risen, divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope, then twist into a pretzel shape.

  4. 4

    Prepare Baking Soda Bath

    In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water to a boil. Add baking soda carefully. Boil each pretzel for about 30 seconds, then remove and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Egg Wash and Salt

    Beat the egg and brush it over each pretzel. Sprinkle coarse sea salt on top.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Bake pretzels in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
