Let it cool to 95F (important so that the yeast doesn&#8217;t die), then add the yeast. Mix the dry ingredients and then add the wet ingredients. Knead. Let the dough rise for an hour. Divide the dough into four. Roll each into a rope about ~36in long (this was really hard) and attempt to make it into a pretzel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boil 4.5 cups (1080g) of water and add 60g (1\/4 cup) of baking soda. Boil each pretzel for 20 seconds. Sprinkle pretzels with coarse salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bake for 8 min at 450F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do this, hopefully your pretzels will turn out better than ours. We skipped the baking soda bath (and instead just brushed baking soda water on them) and it didn&#8217;t turn out quite right. I think it&#8217;s probably important. Good luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s the recipe (makes 4 pretzels): 240g (1 cup) milk 3g (1 tsp) yeast 32g (1\/6 cup) sugar 28g (2T) butter 6g (1 tsp) salt 370g flour Heat the milk, butter, and sugar in the microwave until warm (~1.5 min), and mix until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved.
