Stir in brown sugar and oil to the water/yeast mixture. In a separate bowl combine flour and salt, stir together. Add flour to the liquid mixture and stir until a dough has formed. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Return dough to the bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line 2 sheet trays with parchment paper. Turn the dough out again onto a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll the dough on the table to form a rope about 10 inches long. Fold the rope in half and twist the ends. Repeat with remaining dough. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add baking soda. Working in batches, boil the pretzels for 30 seconds and carefully remove from the water. Place on prepared sheet trays 2 inches apart. Mix egg with 1 tsp water and brush evenly over pretzels. Sprinkle generously with Everything Bagel Seasoning and Cyprus Flake Salt. Bake for 12-15 minutes until dark golden brown. Serve immediately with mustard.

The mustard will be fine in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a month. Send us pics when you make it! Spicewalla Fam on November 18, 2021 How long does the mustard keep? Julie Anderson on November 18, 2021 i wish these recipes were printable from the website patrick on January 04, 2021 Hi Sajid! We wouldn’t suggest making the dough a day ahead, it will overproof and be hard to work with. You could try to make it a day ahead and leave it in the fridge, but it definitely won’t yield the best results. Spicewalla on October 28, 2020 Can one prepare the pretzel dough a day earlier?
