pretzels
I have always liked eating beef tongue cakes and loved its salty and sweet taste. But some of the ones sold outside are delicious, some are very ordinary, and they are not the taste I want. I wanted to make it myself for a long time. Today, I finally made it, and the taste is very good. I am very satisfied with it. Let me share it with you.

Steps for pretzels

    First weigh all the ingredients of the oil skin, pour them into a basin, stir them into a ball with chopsticks, and then knead them evenly with your hands. Because the weather in Beijing is very dry, the last time I made the final filling step, the meringue was so hard that I couldn't even roll it out. So this time I put a little more water. The dough didn't look smooth, but it didn't affect the subsequent production. After kneading into a ball, cover with a damp cloth for 20 minutes. Be sure to cover it with a damp cloth, otherwise the oil skin will easily dry out.

    1. If you like the strong taste of salt and pepper, you can taste it after stirring the filling evenly. It will be okay to add more salt and pepper in a suitable amount;2. When waking up the oil skin and finally waking up the meringue skin, be sure to cover it with a damp cloth, otherwise it will become very difficult to operate after the oil skin dries.
