Ale Yeast Pretzels

Immo’s Ale Yeast Pretzel Recipe I tried to make this recipe for people globally so please use the ingredient list appropriate for your area/region. I put the ingredients list below the instructions. Instructions & Directions: Step 1 Mix dry ingredients (flour, brown sugar, salt) together in a mixing bowl Step 2 Re-hydrate brewers yeast into warm water Step 3 Add wet ingredients below to dry ingredient mixture, add melted butter, add yeast slurry, mix together (a few minutes using automatic mixer) until you have a nice ball of dough. If you have too much dry ingredients add a tablespoon or two of your favorite pilsner beer to help make a nice dough ball Step 4 Cover dough ball in mixing bowl for a few hours until dough rises (it should almost double in size) Step 5 Kill time for a few hours.: play videogames , watch a hockey game, etc. etc. Step 6 Knead dough ball a bit into manageable size to cut into 8 equal pieces, roll dough out into 8 rope strips about a foot and a half long. Shape dough strips into pretzel shapes and place on cookie sheet Step 7 Preheat oven to 450 Fahrenheit/232 Celsius Step 8 Make Baking soda bath solution by mixing water and baking soda together, bring water baking soda mixture to a boil in a saucepan Step 9 Add pretzel to boiling water for approx 10-15 seconds per side, this will help the pretzel brown when in the oven. Step 10 Mix 2 Tablespoons of your favorite pilsner beer with 1 medium size egg yolk. Brush pilsner/yolk mixture over boiled

  • @bmeyer44 Now I’m curious what you said…it just says comment removed…can you retract your own comments?

  • very nice man…btw we have the exact same oven

  • @bmeyer44 , If you cook them correctly they are a delicious breakfast snack, they will keep for several days and are just as good as when you baked them…I’m actually grubbing on one right now….yummy….I’ve also sliced them and dropped them in the toaster (like a bagel or english muffin)….if you want to reheat them to their former warm pretzely glory just re-heat ‘em in the oven at 250F/120C for about 5 min…but they are fantastic at room temp too.

  • Nice video. Good tip on scooping the pretzels without ruining the shape. Boddingtons, the cream of Manchester. The old Strangeways Brewery isn’t that far from me, here in the North West of England. Shame they don’t brew it there any more. I’ve not had a pint of Boddies in ages. Last time I had it, it was cask conditioned. A thirst quenching ale.

  • @immolateus oh crud…my comment earlier showed up twice, so I deleted one of them, but now I see both of them are gone? go figure…just said I was coming over to his house for snacks….looks yummy! nothing bad! LOL

  • Awesome video. I want one now. I was drinking Boddington last night. Love that beer
