Twisted Pretzel Extravaganza with Everything Bagel Seasoning

Craft the art of pretzel making with these twisted delights, topped with savory everything bagel seasoning.

Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups warm water
• 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup baking soda
• 10 cups water
• 1 egg, beaten
• 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in the melted butter, salt, and flour. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 7 minutes.
3. Place the dough in a bowl coated with olive oil, cover, and let it rise in a warm area until doubled, about 1 hour.
4. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 20-inch rope and shape into a pretzel.
6. In a large pot, bring the 10 cups of water and baking soda to a boil. Boil each pretzel for 30 seconds, then remove and place on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Brush each pretzel with beaten egg and sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
8. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
