Guest guest Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Bread Dough Pretzel 1 tablespoons quick-acting yeast 1 cup water 1 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups flour 1 tablespoon oil Preheat over to 400 degrees. Measure the water, sugar and yeast into a bowl and mix. Wait two or three minutes for the yeast to soften. Stir in one cup of flour, then add oil, salt and remaining cup of flour. Sprinkle flour onto a wooden breadboard and place the dough on it. Knead dough for about five minutes. Place dough in a bowl and cover it, letting it rise for about 45 minutes in a warm place away from drafts, open windows, etc. Punch the dough down and work it into a ball. Next, separate the dough into smaller portions and let the children use their hands to roll the dough into ropes or snakes to mold dough into different shapes. After combining ingredients, show children how to knead the dough and let them try. There's no need to wait for it to rise. After kneading, divide up dough and have them roll them into " snakes. " You can arrange the snakes to make the first initial of their names. Let them brush their pretzel with a beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seed, and bake at 400 for about 10 minutes, until light brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
