Today I’m sharing a homemade pretzel recipe taking you less time than it takes to get a fancy manicure. Less time to cool a cupcake. I make a lot of cookies and it’s safe to say that these pretzels are SO much easier than any cookie I’ve ever made. A homemade pretzel recipe that is SO simple… you’ll wonder why pretzel making seems so hard.

Not so easy! (for me)
So playing around on Pinterest, I come across this recipe for 30 minutes homemade soft pretzels. They look delicious and easy to make. All the comments seem to agree... I'm going to try it!
Let's just say, this was a disaster of epic proportion... And proportion is the word. I know it has somehow to do with the amount of flour. I can't figure out if I put too much (some pieces would come off, not adhere to the rest of the dough) or not enough (it was so sticky at some point, I had to add flour). The small balls of dough would not ROLL, no matter which surface I used, it would just slide. My husband even tried it and even though he was more successful than me at getting a long string, the fact that we couldn't get it uniform or round... So I just gave up, I threw it all out and I posted a comment on the website. Sally was nice enough to respond very quickly. I still believe I can do it but maybe I should wait for a bit less humidity, 99% must be screwing with my dough, right? :-D
