- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

- Carefully stretch each of the strips by width and length - stretch each to about 3 inch (7 ½ cm) width and about 34 inch (86 cm) length.
- Sprinkle 1 cup (100g) of cheese down the center of each dough strip. Reserve the last 1 cup (100g) of cheese for later.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your pretzels. Look for fresh, flavorful cheese, garlic, and herbs.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together, then let it rest for a few minutes before rolling it out.
- Be careful not to overcook the pretzels. They should be golden brown and cooked through, but not too hard.
- Serve the pretzels warm. They're best when they're fresh out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.
