Ingredients
Preparation
Dissolve yeast in warm water. combine flour, sugar, and salt; add yeast mixture, and mix until well blended. Turn out onto a lighlty floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 mintues). Using kitchen shears dipped in flour, cut dough into 18 pieces; roll each into a ball. With floured hands, roll each ball between your hands to form a rope about 14 to 16 inches long and about 1/2 inch in diameter; twist each into a pretzel shape, and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Beat egg white until frothy, and brush on each pretzel; sprinkle with salt. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm or cold with mustard, if desired. NOTE: Serve as a snack with mustard, or seve them in place of bread with a main-dish salad. SOURCE: Southern Living Magazine, sometime in the 1970s. Typed for you by Nancy Coleman.
