Pretzels-A

PRETZELS

2 1/2 tsp Yeast
4 cup Flour
2/3 tsp Salt
1 1/3 tbsp Sugar
2 1/2 tbsp Margarine, or butter
1 1/3 cup Water

WATER FOR 'BATH

4 cup Water, at a simmer
5 tsp Baking soda


Add into the bread machine in this order. Set on manual. FORMING: Cut
dough into short strips, roll into ropes and shape into pretzels.
Cover with a tea towel and let rise for 45 minutes. 'BATH': In a cast
iron or OTHER NONALUMINUM pan, bring almost to a boil 4 cups of water
and 5 teaspoons of baking soda. Gently place (by hand or using
slotted spoon) the
pretzels into the water for approximately 15 seconds on each side
turning once. Do NOT let water come to a boil. Remove pretzels and
place on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt (kosher).
Bake at 475 for 12 minutes.

NOTE: In my oven it took only about 10 minutes so watch carefully. Do
NOT make the strips too fat; they really puff up. If you are on a
salt-free diet use sesame, poppy, garlic; whatever you like on the
outside...the WHOLE family, both upstairs and downstairs loved them
and the DAK did all the hard work.
* If you use a machine that needs the water first add ingredients in
reverse order. FROM: Donna German's THE BREAD MACHINE COOKBOOK I and
Grandma Elaine's kitchen.

Losing weight

If you want to shed a few kilos and boost your all round healthfulness, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should commence a carefully designed well-balanced daily routine. In theory, this must contain 5 helpings of grains, cereals and vegetables daily and also require the correct blend of fats, carbs and proteins.

When deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to attempt to cut back on your intake of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.

People starting a weight loss program usually direct your attention to retail store and brand name foods known as 'low fat'. To do this is often wrong, seeing as how a food product may be lowered in fat content, but whilst still remaining dangerously high in carbohydrates.

One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. Now and then in the course of a busy day, you guess you need a meal but really you might want a refreshing cup of water or orange juice. The feelings of being thirsty and hungry are nearly the same, but one results in a fat tummy and one leads to no harm.

As an alternative to concentrating on the many types of food that you should leave out of your weight loss program, direct your attention to the recommended foods which you might want to introduce to your meal plan. If one can manage to introduce the recommended amount nutritious pulses and vegetables into your daily routine, you'll find that stop feeling hungry and have a substantially decreased likelihood of giving in to those damaging midday munchies.
