Sapa tak kenal dengan kewangian pretzel Aunty Anne tu.... ya ampunnn sebut je dah terhidu baunya belum lagi betul ada depan mata... hmmm teringin sangat nak makan tapi di Tawau ni mana laaa nak pi cari yaaa... So dengan segala usaha mengGooGGlekan diri mencari resepi ala2 Aunty Anne's Pretzel akhirnya keTEmU... nak kata 100% sama memang tak laa... yang penting dapat melepaskan rindu sudah cukup... Buatnya memang agak leceh terus terang nak cakap... tapi bila dah siap rasa berbaloi sungguh dapat melihat Pretzel yang dihasilkan dengan tangan sendiri...


Tengok tu... tak ker teserlah KESEDAPANnya.. hehehe... dah tak yah banyak2 cerita resepi mana??... hah tunjuk la resepi yang diskodeng dari GOOGGLe ni.... nasiblaaa kenala paham2kan sendiri bahasa Omputih tu yer...

1 1/2 cup warm water
1 1/8 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup bread flour
3 cups regular flour

2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons baking soda

4 tablespoons butter (melted)

Sprinkle yeast on lukewarm water in mixing bowl; stir to dissolve. Add sugar, salt and stir to dissolve; add flour and knead dough until smooth and elastic. Let rise at least 1/2 hour. 

While dough is rising, prepare a baking soda water bath with 2 cups warm water and 2 Tbsp baking soda. Be certain to stir often. After dough has risen, pinch off bits of dough and roll into a long rope* (about 1/2 inch or less thick) and shape. Dip pretzel in soda solution and place on greased baking sheet. Allow pretzels to rise again. Bake in 450 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes or until golden. Brush with melted butter and enjoy! 

Toppings: for Auntie Anne's famous Cinnamon Sugar, try melting a stick of butter in a shallow bowl (big enough to fit the entire pretzel) and in another shallow bowl make a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. Dip the pretzel into the butter, coating both sides generously. Then dip again into the cinnamon mixture and sprinkle with almond.
