GERMAN PRETZELS (BRETZEL)

I don't know that these really taste like German pretzels, but they were pretty good! I realized with posting these photos that I originally planned to use another recipe (see below), but late one night this week I started and finished the recipe by Alton Brown on the Food Network. It did have 5 stars! I think the boiling in tons of baking soda was a little weird, and I realized too late that I didn't have kosher salt, but if you take them out in 30 seconds (my inattention at first left them in too long. See below the soda stains, that led to soda taste) and salt them one with fine or coarse salt, they are pretty yummy. We had them with soup, and snacks, and one morning split like a bagel and spread with Nutella. Delicious! I thought the twist was pretty realistic, but I was told that more twists on the the way down from the U would look better.

Next time!
