Pretzels

Pretzels:

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp. yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp. salt

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325degree Fahrenheit (or 165 degree Celsius)
  2. Put the yeast in a small bowl with water and honey.
  3. Stir a little and leave for 5 minutes.
  4. Mix the flour and salt together in a bowl.
  5. After the 5 minutes is up, check on the yeast mixture. It should be bigger than before and a little bubbly.
  6. Add this mixture to the flour.
  7. Stir everything together. Use a spoon to start.
  8. Finish with your hands. The dough is ready when it is still a little crumbly and flaky.
  9. Put the dough on the cutting board and knead it into one big bal.
  10. Break off a piece of dough about the size of a big gumball.
  11. Use your hands to roll it into a skinny snake.
  12. Twist the snake into a medium-size-pretzel shape and put it on a baking sheet.
  13. Do this with all the dough, making 12 pretzels.
  14. Bake your pretzels for 10 minutes.
  15. Let them cool and become ready to serve.
