In the US tomorrow we’ll gather to watch commercials and a half time show. Maybe the game will be ok, too. You never know. To make sure there’s something to enjoy, I’m making GIANT PRETZELS (9”/23cm).
My preference is the lye dip but for accessibility, I’m boiling these.
Free recipe plus process shots and some video is up on my Substack.

What game?
Wow, these looks fab! What was the pre-bake dough weight for each pretzel?
Looks amazing, love the way it’s almost a little batard on the end there
Nice
Turn the thicc part into a lil breadbowl, fill with cheese. Dip pretzel in itself.
I will grab a jar of mustard and be right over!
If i want to do the lye instead, how much water and everything else? How long?
Man, this week with the pea-flower pan de mie, and now this absolute unit of a pretzel… you’re really on a roll!
Forget the game – just give me the pretzel and some cheese sauce!! Looks so good!
Looks great, love your work, thanks for another great recipe!
Pregnant pretzels!
