Homemade Soft Pretzels 🥨 Traditional Baking at the Countryside Cottage

Today I will show you very quickly how easy it is to shape the dough and turn it into a pretzel ready to be put in the oven. Boiling the pretzel dough is a traditional technique, which helps the soft pretzels get the proper texture and golden color. It also gives them the crispy exterior while the inside remains soft and chewy which is exactly what we want! You want to be careful to not compromise the shape of the pretzel dough as you are transferring it to and from the boiling water. I typically use a slotted spoon to get the pretzels out in order to help them hold their shape and avoid squishing them. 🥨 Boil the pretzels one or two at a time, for about 10-15 seconds. Bake at 355° Fahrenheit or 180° Celsius for about 12 minutes or until golden brown. 📺 Subscribe if you enjoyed this video: https://youtube.com/@IreneFireCooking?si=s-wbxdrdXNv_1hAZ ❤️ Follow me in Patreon for more content #HomemadePretzels #CottageBaking #BakingFromScratch #CozyCooking #HomemadeBread #CottageLife #cottagecore
