Pretzel Dough Mix (if not making homemade dough)
- Add the ingredients as listed on the packaging and prepare to knead.
Forming the Dough
- Knead until dough is smooth and elastic. By Hand: knead on a lightly floured surface (or use a silicone baking matt) for 10-12 minutes Standing Mixer: use a medium speed for 7-10 minutes.
- Cover and let rise for 30 minutes - 1 hour (until dough has doubled in size)
Baking Soda Bath
- While dough is rising - start the baking soda bath. Combine 2 cups warm water and 2 tablespoons baking soda
- Once the pretzels are ready to form - bring the water to a boil.
Form Pretzels
- Once dough has risen - cut into 8-10 pieces. Roll into a long rope that's about ½ inch thick. (Make sure they are long and skinny as the dough will rise)
- Form the pretzels and dip them in the baking soda bath and place onto the baking sheet.
- Allow pretzels to rise a second time (30 minutes - 1 hour)
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Bake
- Once rise - brush with melted butter (for an alternative version - lightly brush with olive oil) and sprinkle with coarse salt
- Bake for 10 minutes (until they are a golden brown)
