Pretzel Bites
Method
Directions
Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Stir in flour and salt until a dough forms.
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.
Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Soda Solution
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water and baking soda to a gentle boil.
Shape the Pretzel Bites
After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope about 1 inch thick and cut into 1-inch pieces.
Boil the Pretzel Bites
Carefully drop the pretzel bites into the boiling baking soda solution for about 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
