Ingredients

Servings

• 3 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoon Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Warm water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoon Baking soda
• 10 cup Water
• 1 tablespoon Coarse salt
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoon Honey
• 4 tablespoon Mayonnaise

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes.
2. Add flour and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
5. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. In a large pot, bring 10 cups of water to a boil. Add baking soda and stir until dissolved.
7. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope and cut it into smaller sticks.
8. Carefully drop the pretzel sticks into the boiling water, a few at a time, and cook for 30 seconds.
9. Remove the pretzel sticks from the water using a slotted spoon and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
10. Brush each pretzel stick with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt.
11. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
12. While the pretzels are baking, prepare the honey mustard dipping sauce by combining Dijon mustard, honey, and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Mix well.
13. Serve the pretzel sticks warm with the honey mustard dipping sauce.
