GERMAN-STYLE SOFT PRETZELS WITH SWEET BROWN-MUSTARD BUTTER



German-Style Soft Pretzels with Sweet Brown-Mustard Butter image

A lot of soft pretzels are fun to eat, but they lack flavor. In these, molasses and cider give it flavor! Instead of adding fine salt or even kosher salt, I love the pop of flavor a more coarse salt like fleur de sel or another coarse sea salt lends both inside the dough and sprinkled on top. Therefore, instead of a uniformly flavored dough, you get bits of malty sweetness with a pop of flavor from the salt. Maldon salt would also work here, but doesn't quite have the crunch. You can make these all in one day if you wish. A longer overnight ferment increases ease of working with the dough and develops flavor, but will also work with a 4 hour room temperature rise. Shaping is fun, don't let it intimidate you! If you (or the kids!) can't get a perfect pretzel shape right out of the gate, you can make pretzel rolls or buns instead-same great flavor and finish! We love doing half of these as pretzels and half as pretzel rolls, which stay super soft inside and keep better for a second day. Once you get the hang of these, mix them up: You can add in flavor like caraway seeds, poppy seeds or even dried mustard powder. The baking soda wash before baking mimics the lye often used in traditional Bavarian pretzels, and gives the signature mahogany finish of the pretzel and the unmistakable flavor and crust. Finally, to dip the warm finished pretzels in, either butter or yellow mustard is a winner. But we love mixing some soft butter with some grainy brown mustard and a touch of honey for a really delicious spread.

Time 9h45m

Yield 8 large pretzels

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cups warm water (100 to 115 degrees F), plus more if needed
One 1/4-ounce package active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
1 tablespoon molasses
4 3/4 cups unbleached bread flour, plus more for the surface
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed, at room temperature, plus more for the bowl
2 heaping teaspoons coarse sea salt, such as fleur de sel, plus more for sprinkling
3/4 cup sparkling hard cider or malty beer, such as Heineken
Cooking spray, for the plastic
1/3 cup baking soda
1 large egg, well beaten
Sweet Brown Mustard Butter, for serving, recipe follows
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon brown mustard
1 teaspoon honey

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the water and yeast. Stir in the molasses and set aside until the yeast is bloomed and foamy, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add the flour, butter and sea salt and use your hands to press and pinch the butter so that it's coated in flour. Add the yeast mixture and cider and stir together with a fork or a Danish dough whisk to make a loose, shaggy dough.
  • Use your hands to combine the dough or beat the dough in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, until the dough forms a loose ball, about 1 minute. The dough will be firm. (If it feels sticky, add in a bit more flour, a teaspoon at a time, until it is tacky.)
  • Knead the dough by hand on a lightly floured surface or beat the dough on medium-high speed, until it's smooth and springs back when pressed, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the dough, seam-side down, to a well-buttered bowl, turn to coat completely and cover tightly. Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size, 2 to 3 hours at room temperature, or at least 8 hours or up to overnight in the refrigerator (a longer resting time develops the flavor of the dough even further).
  • Lightly flour a clean work surface and turn out the dough. Press down gently to deflate. Cut the dough into 8 equal-sized pieces. Cover the dough and, working with 1 piece at a time, roll between your palms and the surface to create a long rope, about 12 inches long. (The dough will spring back as you work with it. If it's being stubborn, set it aside under a towel and come back to it.) Continue with the remaining dough until all 8 pieces are in long ropes, using a bit of a damp hand to create more friction as needed. Let all the ropes rest while you prepare the baking sheets.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking mats. Begin rolling each rope again, working them into a long 25- to 30-inch rope with a slightly thicker center and tapered ends (Don't worry if they're not perfect, they will still be delicious!).
  • Shape each rope into a U shape. Hold the ends in each hand and lift and cross to make an X a third of the way down from the ends. Fold the ends of the dough toward the bottom, creating a slight overhang, and pinch to seal against the fatter part of the dough, creating a pretzel shape. If this is challenging or your dough is really puffy, fold and loop the dough around itself into a spiral, creating a pretzel bun instead. Transfer to the prepared sheets, leaving space between them.
  • Spray a piece of plastic wrap with cooking spray and lay over the top. Let them rest in a warm (but not hot) place until they have doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, position the racks in the middle and lower third of the oven, then preheat the oven to 475 degrees F on convection setting if available.
  • Bring 6 cups of water and the baking soda to a gentle simmer in a wide stainless-steel saucepan. Using a large skimmer, fish spatula or slotted spoon, lower 1 to 2 pretzels into the soda water and cook, keeping the water at a low simmer, 10 seconds per side. Remove, letting all the water drip off, and return to the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pretzels.
  • Before baking, reshape each pretzel as needed, schooching them with a spoon or gloved hand (they can be slippery) to guide them into shape. Brush the tops of each pretzel with the egg wash, then sprinkle with salt. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until deep golden brown, 11 to 12 minutes.
  • Serve warm with Sweet Brown Mustard Butter. Eat within 24 hours, or cool completely, wrap well and freeze for afternoon snacks.
  • Combine the butter, mustard and honey, working together with a spoon or a spatula until lightly streaked and flavorful (do not fully combine, as the mustard can break the butter). Serve at room temperature. Makes 1/4 cup.

SOFT PRETZELS WITH QUESO POBLANO SAUCE AND MUSTARD SAUCE



Soft Pretzels with Queso Poblano Sauce and Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 pretzels

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
12 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, grated
2 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup whole-grain mustard
Honey, to taste
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons light brown muscovado sugar
1 package active dry yeast
3 ounces unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil
3 quarts water
3/4 cup baking soda
2 whole eggs, beaten with 1 tablespoon cold water
Coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the Monterey Jack cheese, poblano chiles, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Place the queso sauce into a bowl and sprinkle with chopped poblano.
  • Whisk together the mustards and honey, to taste, until combined. Let sit at least 30 minutes before serving.;
  • Line 2 half sheet pans with parchment paper and spray liberally with vegetable spray.
  • Combine the water, sugar, yeast, and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix with the dough hook until combined. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Add the salt and flour and mix on low speed until combined. Increase the speed to medium and continue kneading until the dough is smooth and begins to pull away from the side of the bowl, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the dough appears too wet, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time. Remove the dough from the bowl, place on a flat surface and knead into a ball with your hands.
  • Oil a bowl with vegetable oil, add the dough and turn to coat with the oil. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm spot until the dough doubles in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Bring the water to a boil in a small roasting pan over high heat and add the baking soda.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a flat surface. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 ounces each. Roll each piece into a long rope measuring 22 inches and shape: take the right side and cross over to the left. Cross right to left again and flip up. Boil the pretzels in the water solution, 2 at a time for 30 seconds, splashing the tops with the warmed water using a spoon. Remove with a large flat slotted spatula or a spider. Place 4 pretzels on each baking sheet, brush the tops with the egg wash and season liberally with the salt. Place into the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown.
  • Remove to a baking rack and let rest 5 minutes before eating. Dip into desired sauces.
