1
Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth.
2
Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
3
Shape the Pretzel Bites
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into small pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and set aside.
4
Prepare the Baking Soda Bath
In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water to a boil and add baking soda. Boil each pretzel bite for about 30 seconds, then remove and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5
Bake the Pretzel Bites
Brush each pretzel bite with melted butter and sprinkle sea salt on top. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
6
Serve
Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with a cajun dip!
