1 pkg. dry yeast
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 T. sugar
3/4 cup warm water
1 beaten egg
Sea salt (coarse) for top
Mix yeast and water in bowl, stirring with wooden spoon or spatula. Add sugar and salt and stir again. Add flour and mix enough to hold mixture together. Turn mixture out on a floured board and knead for 5 minutes or until smooth. Or use your Kitchen Aid mixer with dough hook. Cut off walnut size pieces and shape into a rope about 8 to 10 inches long. Twist or curl or tie into a loose knot like a pretzel. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt. Place on cookie sheet and bake 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Too thick will make doughy pretzels, too thin with be brittle pretzels.
