Hi guys, do you have an opinion on using lye to make pretzels? I purchased some food grade lye, but it is not a common way to make pretzels any longer. Would you boil the mixture and dunk the pretzels, or do you need to boil at all? Can you dunk them in room temperature water, or can you simply brush them with the mixture. Also, if you have an opinion, in favor of the lye, what proportions would you use.
Thank you in advance for your help ( hopefully)!
