- 5 cups flour
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 4 cups warm water
- 6 tsp dry yeast
- 1.5 tsp salt
- good glug veg oil
Plus hot water and 0.5 cups (!) of baking soda, and some coarse salt
Make the dough in the usual way. Shape into pretzels. Then put the baking soda into the hot water and dunk the shaped pretzels into it and lay them on the trays, sprinkle them with salt and bake at 230 for about 8 minutes or golden brown.
If your dough rises this much you've left it a bit too long.
