Soft and delicious made with bread flour.
Great snack or appetizers for parties and gatherings.
The recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it’s worth the wait.
High in carbohydrates and salt.
Not the healthiest food but it could be enjoyed occasionally in moderation.
Using bread flour instead of all-purpose flour results in a better crust and chewier texture. Pretzels are a good source of carbohydrates needed for energy.
