Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar to a large mixing.
- Let the yeast bloom. This will take about 5 minutes. You’ll know it’s blooming when you see little puffs of expanded yeast float to the top and it gets nice and foamy.
- Add the salt and mix to combine.
- Begin adding the flour 1 cup at a time, mixing to combine fully before adding in the next cup. I recommend using a large plastic or wooden spoon for this step.
- After the flour is fully added, make sure the dough is no longer sticky. If it is sticky, continue adding in a little more flour (¼ cup at a time) to the dough until it is no longer sticky.
- Place the dough on a floured surface and knead for about 4-5 minutes.
- Using a knife, cut the dough into 4 sections.
- Roll each section into a long rope.
- Cut the rope into 1” x 1” squares.
- Prep them all and set them aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil (about 8 cups).
- Slowly add in the baking soda. It’s important to do this slowly or it will cause it to boil over.
- Add about 15-20 pretzel bites at a time to the boiling water and let them cook for about 30 seconds.
- Remove them from the water (draining the excess) and place them on the parchment lined baking sheet. Make sure the bites aren’t touching.
- Continue this process until all of the pretzel bites have been done.
- In a bowl, beat the egg and add 1 tablespoon of water.
- Brush each of the pretzel bites with the egg wash and then sprinkle them with coarse kosher (or sea) salt.
- Bake them in the oven for 15 minutes.
- If they aren’t fully browned on top, you can switch to broil and leave them in for about 1 minute. Keep your eye on them! They can burn quickly under the broiler.
