Print RecipeIngredients
- Dough Ingredients
- 4 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of yeast
- 1 cup of water
- Topping Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of water
- 2 tablespoons of baking soda
- Coarse, kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons of butter, melted
Instructions
- In a big bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer, add the flour, salt, sugar and yeast. Combine. Add the water. Combine thoroughly, add extra flour, if desired, a bit at a time to have a mushy, clean dough that clears the edges and backside of the bowl. It ought to be mushy, however, not overly sticky.
- Knead for 4 to 5 minutes till the dough is mushy and stretchy. Grease the within of a gallon-size ziplock-type bag with nonstick cooking spray and place the dough inside. Shut the bag, leaving room for the dough to broaden, and let it relax for 20 to 30 minutes (or as much as 60 minutes) until doubled in measurement. Alternately, the dough can rise in an evenly greased, coated bowl.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The excessive warmth ensures the pretzels will brown fantastically on the skin whereas staying mushy and chewy on the within. Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper and evenly grease with cooking spray.
- Switch the dough to an evenly greased or floured work floor, and minimize the dough into 4 thick strips. Reduce every strip of dough into about 8 pieces. It should not be precise.
- Mix the highly regarded water and baking soda and whisk to mix effectively.
- Dip every pretzel chunk within the baking soda solution (this helps give the pretzels a pleasant, golden-brown colour). Let the surplus liquid drip off earlier than putting the pretzel bites a pair inches aside on the ready baking sheets.
- Sprinkle the pretzel bites with coarse, kosher salt. Permit them to relaxation, uncovered, for about 10 minutes.
- Bake the pretzels for 8 minutes till golden brown.
- Take away the pretzels from the oven and instantly brush them with the melted butter. Maintain brushing the butter on till you’ve used all of it up; it could look like quite a bit. However, that’s what offers these pretzels their ethereal style. Serve heat or at room temperature.
