Instructions to make to make German Lye Pretzels - Laugenbrezel [Bakery Recipe]
- In a bowl or small pot, put in the 40 g butter, 100 ml milk, and 5 g salt.Heat on low until the butter just melts and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, add 200 ml warm water and 5 g sugar. Mix and add 5 g dry yeast. Mix well and wait for 10-15 minutes until the yeast bubbles up.
- Add the 500 g flour to a large bowl. Make a 'crater' in the middle of the flour and pour in the butter/milk mix. Toss some flour over the butter/milk and then pour in the yeast water around the outside of the crater.
- Gradually mix the flour into the liquid with your fingers. When the flour starts to absorb some of the liquid, start bringing together the flour with your hands until you can form a ball.

- Return dough to bowl and cover. Let rise for 40 minutes in a warm place or until about doubled in size.

- In a medium bowl, put in water first then mix in the lye until the lye is dissolved. (Be very careful with lye! Make sure your room is ventilated and you're wearing rubber gloves and even consider safety glasses).
- Still wearing your gloves and glasses, grab each pretzel at the top where the tips are pressed into the fat part. Dip it into the lye solution, making sure every part gets covered in some liquid. Lift out, let drain and arrange onto baking sheets in preparation to bake
