Fun Fact: I used to call pretzels PRENzels. I think I pronounced it like that until sometime in elementary school! My best friend still makes fun of me for it...I was special.
We always had pretzels in the house growing up. My mom was and still is a die hard rold gold fan. I was never much a fan, I was more of a potato chip girl growing up. Ruffles were the best!
Then I met Alex. He LOVES pretzels. He buys snyders pretzels, and I must say in my opinion snyders does make the best pretzel! I think they just have a better flavor and saltiness to them then rold gold. They also have so many fun flavors and different shapes/sizes and even ones with peanut butter and chocolate! That sold me over right there!
Alright why do I keep going on and on about pretzels.....because it's National Pretzel Day :) Buzzfeed put out this fun list of things to eat today.
What I am talking about today though is homemade soft pretzels. I made these for Alex's birthday one year because he isn't much of a sweets fan but loves his salt. He now requests these ALL the time. I should of never made them ;). This recipe is kind of time consuming and not as simple as some but the pretzels are crunchy, salty, chewy and DELICIOUS. There are a ton of recipes out there that are little easier than this, just google homemade soft pretzels. If you want to give this one a whirl though it's totally worth it. Enjoy!
