Pretzel Fries

Method

Preparation and Baking

  1. 1

    Make the Pretzel Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

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

  3. 3

    Shape the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Roll the dough into a rectangle, then cut into fry-shaped strips.

  4. 4

    Boil the Fries

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add baking soda. Carefully drop in the pretzel fries and boil for about 30 seconds. Remove and place on a baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Egg Wash and Bake

    Beat the egg and brush it over the fries. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
