Hard pretzels are a classic snack rooted in European, particularly German, cuisine. Traditionally made from simple ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, salt, and sometimes malt, these crunchy treats are baked to a golden finish. Their distinct shape and savory flavor have made them a popular option worldwide. Hard pretzels are low in fat and contain a modest amount of protein and fiber, making them a better alternative to greasy snacks like chips. However, they are typically high in refined carbohydrates and sodium, which may be a concern for individuals watching their blood sugar or salt intake. While they provide quick energy, they lack significant vitamins or minerals and should be enjoyed in moderation. Pairing them with a source of protein, like hummus or peanut butter, can help balance their nutritional profile.
