Brezel, commonly known as pretzel, is a traditional baked snack originating from German and European cuisine. Recognized by its distinctive twisted shape, Brezel is typically made from a simple dough of flour, water, yeast, and salt. After shaping, it is boiled briefly in a solution containing baking soda, which provides its signature chewy texture and golden-brown crust once baked. Nutritionally, Brezel is low in fat and cholesterol, making it a lighter snack option compared to fried treats. It offers quick energy from carbohydrates but is typically low in fiber and protein, limiting its overall satiety. Many versions are topped with coarse salt, which can contribute to higher sodium content. While delicious on its own, dipping sauces or adding buttery glazes can increase calorie levels. Moderation is key to enjoying this iconic snack as part of a balanced diet.
