Pretzel Bites

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the warm water, brown sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Add the salt and flour, 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 it in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

  3. 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, rolling each into a bite-sized ball.

  4. 4

    Boil the Pretzel Bites

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add baking soda. Boil the pretzel bites in batches for about 30 seconds each, then remove and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pretzel Bites

    Brush the boiled bites with the beaten egg and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Add Cheese and Season

    Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley while still warm.
