Bavarian-Style Soft Pretzels - Recipe - FineCooking

"And an oil mister comes in handy because it releases less oil than a can of cooking spray does. Whichever you use, mist only as necessary to prevent the dough from sticking or drying out; too much will make the pretzels greasy...."

19-1/2 oz. (4-1/2 cups) unbleached bread flour; more as needed
