Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.67 cup Baking soda
- 1 tablespoon Coarse sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Step 2
Add the flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir until the dough starts to come together.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 6
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the baking soda.
Step 7
Punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope approximately 20 inches long and cut each rope into 1-inch bites.
Step 8
Carefully drop about 8-10 pretzel bites into the boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them onto the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining pretzel bites.
Step 9
Sprinkle each pretzel bite with coarse sea salt.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pretzel bites are golden brown and puffed.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
