Preparation and Baking

1. 1

   Activate Yeast

   In a bowl, combine warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. 2

   Make Dough

   In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

3. 3

   First Rise

   Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

4. 4

   Shape Pretzels

   Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and twist into a pretzel shape.

   Baking Soda Bath

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

6. 6

   Bake Pretzels

   Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
