Title: Buttery Soft Pretzels
Categories: Breads
Yield: 12 pretzels
4 ts Active dry yeast
1 ts White sugar
1 1/4 c Warm water (110ºF/45ºC)
5 c A-P flour
1/2 c White sugar
1 1/2 ts Salt
1 tb Oil
1/2 c Baking soda
4 c Hot water
1/4 c Coarse salt; for topping
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in
1 1/4 cup warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10
minutes.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and
salt. Make a well in the center; add the oil and yeast
mixture. Mix and form into a dough. If the mixture is
dry, add one or two more tablespoons of water. Knead the
dough until smooth, about 7 to 8 minutes. Lightly oil a
large bowl, place the dough in the bowl, and turn to
coat with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a
warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Set oven @ 450ºF/230ºC. Grease 2 baking sheets.
In a large bowl, dissolve baking soda in 4 cups hot
water; set aside. When risen, turn dough out onto a
lightly floured surface and divide into 12 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a rope and twist into a pretzel
shape. Once all of the dough is shaped, dip each pretzel
into the baking soda-hot water solution and place
pretzels on baking sheets. Sprinkle with kosher salt.
Bake until browned, about 8 minutes.
Yield: 1 dozen
