- 1 cup sourdough starter active and bubbly
- 1 cup warm water
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup baking soda
- Coarse sea salt for topping
In a bowl, combine the sourdough starter and warm water.
Add sugar and salt, mixing until dissolved.
Gradually incorporate flour, stirring until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1-2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each into a long rope.
Shape each rope into a pretzel by twisting the ends together.
Boil water in a pot and add baking soda; briefly dip each pretzel.
Place pretzels on the baking sheet, sprinkle with coarse sea salt, and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
