This is the first item I've made with the sourdough starter I bought at KAF a week ago! The pretzels are fantastic; only bad thing is having to resist eating them all while they're still warm! I admit, I skipped the water/sugar wash and instead boiled my pretzels in a water/baking soda solution; it gave them a fantastic chewy crust like a bagel. Next week, sourdough bread! :)
There are great sourdough bread recipes on our website - the Rustic Sourdough Bread is on my weekly baking list to help with sourdough maintenance! Happy Baking! Irene @ KAF
