PRETTLES

Steps:

• Boil the meat until it falls off the bones, generally in a dutch oven on top of the stove.
• About 2 hours.
• Reserve cooking liquid.
• Remove meat from bones and grind, fat and all in meat grinder.
• Cook old fashioned oats in the cooking liquid, adding enough oats to make a texture like oatmeal.
• Mix ground meat with oatmeal mixture and add allspice, salt and pepper"to taste".
• I used a fair amount of allspice, 1-2T for a batch.
• Refrigerate or freeze in serving sized batches.
• Prepare by spoon frying, with a little butter or oil, until a browned coating forms.
• Eat for breakfast or on bread as a sandwich.

PRETTLES

Steps:

• Cover with salted water, and boil until meat is tender. Grind the meat in a meat grinder.
• Mix together well. Set aside.
• Cook 4 cups pinhead oats, in the broth left over from the meat. You will need 3 cups of broth for each 1 cup of oats. Cook 20 minutes. Then add the the ground meat, mixing well. Add the pepper and allspice mixing well. Spread into a couple 9x12 cake pans. Place in freezer until cool enough to cut into blocks, wrap in foil and return to freezer until ready to use.
• Place a small amount of Crisco or butter in a skillet and fry just until heated.
• We serve it on bread or toast. Some put molasses on it too.
• If you like it spicer add more pepper and allspice to taste.

PRETZELS

Steps:

• Add warm water to the bowl of a stand mixer, sprinkle the yeast over the water. Let sit for 5 minutes or until foaming.
• Sift together the 1½ cups flour with the sugar and salt onto parchment paper or a medium bowl. Add flour mixture and butter to yeast mixture in the stand mixer. Mix dough in the stand mixer fitted with a dough hook on medium speed about 3 to 5 minutes. If necessary, with a spatula, scrape down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all the flour. Sift 1 cup flour, add to dough and mix in. If the dough is still really sticky, add remaining ¼ cup flour.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand so that the dough is no longer sticky. Place dough in a lightly oiled large bowl. Cover with saran wrap. Place dough in a warm place. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Punch down the dough and divide it into eight equal pieces. Roll out each piece with the palms of your hands until the piece is approximately 22-inches long. Form each long piece into a pretzel shape or leave shape and make pretzel sticks.
• Transfer pretzels to prepared baking sheets leaving 1 1/2-inch space between pretzels, that is, about 4 pretzels per baking sheet. Place in a warm place and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• In a large non-reactive pot, bring water and baking soda to a boil.
• Carefully add 4 pretzels, right side up, in the boiling baking soda solution with a slotted spoon. Flip the pretzel over. The pretzels are only in the solution for about 20 seconds total time. Carefully transfer pretzels back to baking sheet, right side, spacing again apart and 4 per sheet. Sprinkle each one generously with coarse sea salt. Repeat with cooking process with 4 remaining pretzels.
• Bake in oven until the pretzels are crispy and brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool briefly before eating. Serve with mustard if desired.

ALMOST-FAMOUS SOFT PRETZELS

Steps:

• Make the pretzels: Warm the milk in a saucepan until it's about 110 degrees; pour into a medium bowl and sprinkle in the yeast. Let the yeast soften, about 2 minutes; stir in the brown sugar and 1 cup flour with a wooden spoon. Dice 2 tablespoons butter and soften; stir into the mix. Add the remaining 1 1/4 cups flour and the fine salt to make a sticky dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead, adding more flour if needed, until smooth but still slightly tacky, about 5 minutes. Shape into a ball, place in a lightly greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and grease a large baking sheet. Punch the dough to deflate it, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface. (If the dough seems tight, cover and let rest until it relaxes.) Divide the dough into 6 pieces. Roll and stretch each piece with the palms of your hands into a 30-inch rope, holding the ends and slapping the middle of the rope on the counter as you stretch. Form each rope into a pretzel shape.
• Dissolve the baking soda in 3 cups warm water in a shallow baking dish. Gently dip each pretzel in the soda solution, then arrange on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the coarse salt. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Prepare the sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, mustard, brown sugar and vinegar in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
• Melt the remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a shallow dish. Dip the hot pretzels in the butter, turning to coat; place on a wire rack to let excess butter drip off. Serve the pretzels warm with the sweet mustard sauce.

HOMEMADE SOFT PRETZELS

Steps:

• Combine the water, sugar and kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the yeast on top. Allow to sit for 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to foam. Add the flour and butter and, using the dough hook attachment, mix on low speed until well combined. Change to medium speed and knead until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the side of the bowl, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the dough from the bowl, clean the bowl and then oil it well with vegetable oil. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and sit in a warm place for approximately 50 to 55 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line 2 half-sheet pans with parchment paper and lightly brush with the vegetable oil. Set aside.
• Bring the 10 cups of water and the baking soda to a rolling boil in an 8-quart saucepan or roasting pan.
• In the meantime, turn the dough out onto a slightly oiled work surface and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll out each piece of dough into a 24-inch rope. Make a U-shape with the rope, holding the ends of the rope, cross them over each other and press onto the bottom of the U in order to form the shape of a pretzel. Place onto the parchment-lined half sheet pan.
• Place the pretzels into the boiling water, 1 by 1, for 30 seconds. Remove them from the water using a large flat spatula. Return to the half sheet pan, brush the top of each pretzel with the beaten egg yolk and water mixture and sprinkle with the pretzel salt. Bake until dark golden brown in color, approximately 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack for at least 5 minutes before serving.

HOMEMADE SOFT PRETZELS

Steps:

• Put the flour, yeast, sugar and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl and mix together to combine. In a large jug, mix together 300ml lukewarm water and the butter. Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the water, mixing together to form a rough dough.
• Tip out onto a floured work surface and knead for 10-15 mins or until smooth and elastic. Put the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with oiled cling film and set aside until doubled in size, about 1hr.
• Once risen, knock out the air bubbles in the dough and divide into 8 equal pieces. Using your hands, roll each piece into a long rope about 60cm long.
• To form into pretzels, lay the rope in a U-shape with the curve pointing towards you. Take the two ends and cross them over.
• Take the ends, lift them backwards and press them into the curve of the U-shape. Repeat with the remaining dough. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.
• Carefully place the pretzels on a baking tray lined with parchment and lightly greased with oil. Cover lightly with oiled cling film. Set aside for about 20 mins until puffy (not fully risen like bread dough).
• Fill a medium-sized saucepan with water, bring to the boil, add the baked bicarbonate of soda, then reduce the heat to a low simmer. One at a time, carefully lift the pretzels into the pan and cook for 20 secs per side. The pretzels will rise to the surface; flip with a slotted spoon.
• Use the spoon to gently lift the pretzels from the pan and return them to the baking tray. Once they have all been cooked in the water, lightly brush with the egg and sprinkle with flaked sea salt.
• Bake in the oven for 20-25 mins or until a rich, dark brown. Allow to cool on the baking tray for 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Best served on the day made but can be frozen for up to 1 month.
