This recipe is not as complicated as it looks at first glance, I promise, even though I was making them, and said to Dennis about halfway through, “I don’t want to do this anymore!”
All whining aside, these are really good, and not as hard as you’d think.
I did look up a YouTube video on how to twist pretzels so they look like…pretzels, but then decided learning how to twist pretzels wasn’t on my agenda for that particular evening, so instead, mine look more like pretzel knots.
That’s OK, though, because they’re delicious. Seriously amazing pretzels. So take a few hours on a weekend and try these out. They’re worth it.
