An easy recipe with excellent results.

plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes to
1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375F. Line baking sheet with foil, lightly grease; set aside.
Punch dough down, knead about 5 times. Divide dough into 12 equal
portions. Cover portions not being rolled. Roll each portion into a 16
inch rope; shape into pretzel. Place on baking sheet, cover, and let rise
5 minutes.
Beat together egg yolk and water. Lightly brush on pretzels. Sprinkle
pretzels lightly with coarse salt and flax seed, if desired. Bake 15
minutes or until golden brown.
