Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 0.25 cups Baking soda
- 4 cups Hot water
- 1 tablespoon Coarse salt (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, cane sugar, and salt.
Step 2
Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 7-8 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a clean, lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the baking soda and hot water until fully dissolved. Set aside.
Step 7
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope (about 20 inches long), then twist and shape into a pretzel shape.
Step 8
Carefully dip each shaped pretzel into the baking soda solution, making sure it's fully coated, then place it onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 9
Sprinkle the tops of the pretzels with coarse salt, if desired.
Step 10
Bake the pretzels in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and allow the pretzels to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
