Those Pretzels looked tasty, so that same day, I ran down to the grocers, and picked up some yeast, then I came home and copied everything you guys did, and when they were done, I must admit they were very tasty! (Not as good looking as yours were though) Anywho, keep up the fantastic work guys! This is actually the first crash test kitchen podcast I have ever seen, and I was very, very impressed.

Then, let stand for 10 min. It should bubble up, if it doesn't - it's bad yeast. You will probably find that your pretzels will rise a lot higher and be softer. Good luck.

I made pretzels once for a football game (Go Buckeyes) and they were good and fun. My nephew asked his Mom to get "the map" (directions=recipe) so I said "great thing to do with kids" and started to write it up...but as I detailed what not to do to avoid catastrophe (baking soda in FULL pot of BOILING water= equals a mess to rival a restaurant line Ansul system blow up) I decided the best directions for a 5 year old were "Ask Aunt Cary to make you some." Still tasty fun... First stop here..via Serious Eats somehow…I like it! I made pretzels once for a football game (Go Buckeyes) and they were good and fun.

There are plenty of them out there, much bigger than us. The idea is to watch the videos. So get your pen and paper out and write down that recipe! Waz Steve,

By the way, Waz, when flipping the pretzels in the boiling water, you should have used one of those long 2-pronged forks that they use for roast beef (like my technical terms?). It would have made the flipping a ton easier... All things considered though, really awesome episode. You guys are awesome.

They looked great. I don't mind the squabbling, either. Nice to have the toutch of vérité. But -- the baker in me cringes when you measure. I wish I could donate some measuring spoons to you two! ;) Delicious! They looked great. I don’t mind the squabbling, either. Nice to have the toutch of vérité.
