Soft Pretzels — German recipe
Soft Pretzels, photographed for the Kitchen Pantri cookbook.

Soft Pretzels

Yeasted dough twisted into loops, dipped in boiling baking-soda water and baked until deep brown. The bath is what separates a pretzel from a breadstick — it changes how the surface browns, and it takes about a minute per pretzel.
