Susies Pretzel Dogs Recipes

PRETZEL DOGS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
• Roll each dinner roll into a long rope approximately 1 1/2 to 2 times the length of a hot dog. Coil each rope around a hot dog, pinching the ends to seal them so they cannot come loose.
• Add the baking soda to the boiling water, then, working in batches, drop the pretzel dogs into the water for 30 seconds and remove to a rack.
• When all the dogs have been boiled, place them on the greased baking sheet. Brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle with pretzel salt.
• Bake until the bread ropes are cooked and have turned golden brown, about 12 minutes. Serve with spicy mustard and pickles.

SUSIE'S PRETZEL DOGS

Steps:

• 1. Add honey to the warm water and stir to dissolve (you can use sugar if you don't have honey). Stir in yeast and set aside until foamy. (5-10 min)
• 2. In a large bowl, mix about 3 cups of bread flour and the 1 tsp. of kosher salt together. Add the melted butter & yeast mixture. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour a little at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic (about 8-10 min). I use my Kitchen-Aid mixer with a dough hook for this.
• 3. Put dough in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until double (about 1 hour).
• 4. When dough is ready, roll out on a lightly oiled surface to about 10 x 20 inches.
• 5. Slice the dough into 1 inch wide strips. Wrap the dough around each hot dog, making sure to pinch the edges at each end. There should be about 1/2 inch of hot dog at each end showing. If you have any dough left over after wrapping your hot dogs, roll them into strips and shape into a pretzel. :)
• 6. Bring the 10 cups of water to a boil and then add the baking soda and stir to dissolve. Add the dough-wrapped hot dogs a few at a time, and boil for about 30 seconds.
• 7. Remove with a large slotted spoon and place on 2 greased baking sheets (or use parchment paper).
• 8. Mix the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water together, and brush on the pretzel dogs.
• 9. Sprinkle with kosher salt if you like, and then bake in a preheated 425-450 oven for about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
• 10. Remove from pans and let cool slightly...and then enjoy!

PRETZEL DOGS

Steps:

• Combine the warm water, sugar and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the yeast on top. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, until the yeast is foamy and begins to smell of yeast.
• Add the flour and butter to the yeast mixture. Attach the dough hook to the stand mixer and, on medium-low speed, combine the mixture until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and appears shiny, roughly 4 to 5 minutes.
• Spray a large bowl with non-stick spray (or lightly grease with vegetable oil) and place dough in greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Place bowl in a warm area and let dough rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Place an oven rack in the top third of your oven, and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Spray parchment paper with non-stick spray. Set aside.
• In a large pot, bring the 10 cups of water and the baking soda to a rolling boil.
• Place the dough on a greased surface, and divide into 16 equal pieces (If you weigh dough, like I do, they will be about 2.20 oz. each).
• Roll each piece into a long rope, roughly 12 inches long. Carefully wrap half of each piece around a third of a hot dog. Pinch the ends together to seal the dough. If you run out of hot dogs before dough, make regular pretzels. Cut a little more dough off (3 oz.), and shape as desired.
• Place each shaped pretzel on the parchment lined baking sheet.
• Boil the shaped pretzels and pretzel dogs, one at a time, in the baking soda water for 30 seconds each. Using a slotted spatula or spider strainer, remove each pretzel dog from the water and place it on a drying rack to allow any extra baking soda mixture to drip off.
• Place the boiled pretzel dogs back on the parchment lined baking sheets. Brush with beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with pretzel or kosher salt.
• Bake until golden brown, roughly 10 1/2 minutes (14 to 15 minutes for large pretzels).
• Transfer pretzel dogs to a cooling rack for a few minutes before serving. Serve with a variety of mustards or cheese sauce.

PRETZEL DOGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚F (230˚C).
• Dust the cutting board with flour, and cut the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces.
• Roll each piece of dough out until it's a 12-inch (30 cm) rope. It's okay if the dough naturally shrinks.
• Take the rolled out dough and wrap it around a hot dog in a spiraling motion, leaving room on the ends.
• In a pot, combine the baking soda with the water and bring it to a boil.
• Cook each pretzel dog in the solution for 30 seconds each. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a baking tray.
• Brush each pretzel dog with the egg wash.
• Top the pretzels with your toppings of choice.
• For sea salt, sprinkle the salt on top. For jalapeño cheddar, top the pretzel with cheddar cheese, then follow with jalapeños. For garlic butter, combine the butter, garlic, and parsley, and brush on top. For pizza, top with mozzarella and follow with pepperoni.
• Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until it reaches a deep golden brown.
• Enjoy!
