Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 packet active dry yeast
• 1.5 cups warm water
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 0.333 cup baking soda
• 2 tablespoons coarse sea salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water, then sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Step 2

Add the salt and olive oil to the yeast mixture, then gradually mix in the flour, one cup at a time, until a dough forms.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 14-inch-long rope and tie it into a knot.

Step 7

In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Gradually add the baking soda, being careful as it might bubble.

Step 8

Using a slotted spoon, gently place each pretzel knot into the boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Sprinkle each pretzel knot with coarse sea salt.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the pretzels are golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
