12 servings
3 1/2 c All-Purpose Flour; unsifted
2 tb Sugar
1 ts Salt
1 pk Active Dry Yeast
1 c Water
1 tb Water
1 Egg Yolk; beaten
Coarse Salt
Mix 1 cup flour, sugar, salt and undissolved yeast. Heat 1 cup
water and margarine to 120 to 130 degrees. Gradually add to dry
ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of mixer. Add 1/2 cup
flour.
Beat at high speed 2 minutes. Stir in enough additional flour to
make a soft dough. On floured board, knead 5 minutes. Set in greased
bowl; turn to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free
place 40 minutes.
Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each into a 20-inch
rope. Shape into pretzels or other shapes. Place on greased baking
sheets. Cover; let rest 5 minutes. Mix egg yolk and 1 tablespoon
water; brush on pretzels. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake at 375
degrees 15 minutes or until done. Cool on racks.
