📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl add in the flour.
2
Put yeast on one side of the bowl and salt and sugar on the side of the bowl.If you add the salt on top of the yeast it will deactivate that yeast and your dough will not rise.
(42Og/ 15oz) strong flour/ bread flour3 cups½ tsp salt1(2 level tablespoons) baking soda6 tspsaltsugar1 tbsp
3
Add in water and mix to form a dough. That's it, your dough is done!
4
Wrap the bowl tight with film wrap and lay a towel over it. Put it in a dry place at room temp and leave overnight. A minimum of ⏱️ 12 hours, but up to ⏱️ 18 hours and let time do its magic. I do ⏱️ 18 hours :)
5
The next day your dough will smell boozy and bubbling. It is pretty incredible.
6
Turn out onto a floured surface and divide into 9 balls and let it and relax for ⏱️ 2 minutes
7
To shape: take each piece of dough and begin rolling them on the counter. Bang the dough on the counter like I do in the video and they will just naturally get longer and longer. Keep going until you reach 24 inches (60 cm). Twist the ends of the dough and press onto the the opposite sides of the pretzel.
8
Put straight into boiling water with baking soda and poach for JUST ⏱️ 30 seconds, then place on a baking tray. This boiling step is the secret to firm skin and adds that definite pretzel flavor.
