    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1 1/4      teaspoons  active dry yeast -- or .25 oz
    2        tablespoons  brown sugar
    1 1/8      teaspoons  salt
    1 1/2           cups  warm water -- (110F/45C)
    3               cups  all-purpose flour
    1                cup  bread flour
    2        tablespoons  baking soda
    2        tablespoons  butter -- melted
    2        tablespoons  coarse kosher salt

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast, brown sugar and salt in 1 
1/2 cups warm water. Stir in flour, and knead dough on a floured 
surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Place in a greased 
bowl, and turn to coat the surface. Cover, and let rise for one hour.

Combine 2 cups warm water and baking soda in an 8 inch square pan. 
Line 6 baking sheets with parchment paper.

After dough has risen, cut into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a 3 
foot rope, pencil thin or thinner. Twist into a pretzel shape, and 
dip into the baking soda solution. Place onto parchment covered 
baking sheets, and let rise 15 to 20 minutes.

Preheat an oven to 450F (230C).

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden 
brown. Brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with coarse salt, 
garlic salt or cinnamon sugar.

Yield 1 dozen pretzels
