Ingredients

· 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons water

· 3 cups all-purpose flour

· 3 tablespoons brown sugar

· 1½ teaspoons active dry yeast

· 2 quarts water

· ½ cup baking soda

· Coarse salt

Method

In bread pan, add flour, brown sugar, yeast and water and knead till a dough is formed. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough into eight balls. Roll each into a rope; form into pretzel shape.

Preheat oven to 250°C. In a large saucepan, bring water and baking soda to a boil. Drop pretzels into boiling water, two at a time; boil for 10-15 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Place pretzels on greased baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, eight to10 minutes. Spritz or lightly brush with water. Sprinkle with salt.
