Without the egg and with the baking soda. That makes it mildly chewy and extremely soft. Such a good recipe by the way. I'm Thirteen and I made it, so it was a good and easy recipe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852381001243497392.post-86920914865434999562012-09-27T14:50:31.880-07:002012-09-27T14:50:31.880-07:00I was able to make it without baking soda.

I would agree with the above poster about the baking soda....it was a bit powerful.

They were a wonderful texture... thanks for posting a recipe that was so easy to make!<br /><br />My only problem with these pretzels is that they have a soda taste that overpowers the sweetness. I asked my chef friend about the purpose of so much baking soda in the water bath. She says it's necessary to keep the soft chewy crust of the pretzel, but felt that 2 or 3 tablespoons in the water would probably have done the trick. Next time I make these, I do believe they will be just right!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852381001243497392.post-8899914151744833072010-02-04T18:16:07.234-08:002010-02-04T18:16:07.234-08:00Pretty good for a wolverine.
