How To Make Our Basic Soft Pretzels:
Here’s a quick rundown of the process.
First: Mix up the dough.
Now knead it up – 10-15 times is good – and put back in the bowl.
Now cover with plastic and let the yeast do its thang.
Roll, shape, and dip in a baking soda solution (that’s what pretzelifies it).
Bake. Dip. Eat. What a happy ending.
I did not bother to do a center pretzel twist, mostly because I was just in such a hurry to get some bread in my oven so that I could make this moment happen:
Because let’s be honest. That’s really why we’re making these soft, fluffy, steaming hot pretzels. To rip, cheese-dip, and devour.
Ingredients
soft pretzels
- 1 package instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- more flour for dusting
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm milk
extras
- coarse salt
- 1/4 cup baking soda whisked into 34 cups warm water
- 1 egg
Directions
Step 1
Make the Dough: In a mixing bowl, gently whisk the warm milk, yeast, brown sugar, butter, and salt. Stir in the flour until a dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead 10-15 times.
Step 2
Let the Dough Hang Out: Return to the bowl and drizzle with a little oil to prevent sticking. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and set aside for an hour to rise.
Step 3
Pretzel-ify: When the dough has risen, punch it back down and divide it into 6-8 sections. Roll each section into a loooong skinny rope. Fold it into a pretzel. Dip into the baking soda solution and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake: Brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown.
