What makes pretzels brown in the manufacturing process?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pretzels are dipped in a water/base solution. You can use baking powder but it does not work nearly as well as the real deal which is sodium hydroxide. If purchasing sodium hydroxide I would ensure to get food grade and only use what a recipe calls for. Natrumlauge is the German word for sodium hydroxide. You can dip rolls into it and make pretzel rolls or laugebrotchen as they are called in German. Cheers!

Can you use chocolate syrup to make chocolate covered pretzels?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You wouldn't want to use Hershey's Chocolate Syrup to coat your pretzels. The chocolate wouldn't dry and "set up". You could just "dip" the pretzels in the Hershey's syrup for one bite at a time. You could melt some semi sweet "bakers chocolate" or Nestles Chocolate Chips like you use to bake chocolate chip cookies and coat the pretzels in this which would stick to the pretzels. Lay them on waxed paper to dry after dipping. Yes, definitely use salted pretzels. The sweet and salty taste is terrific! Whatever you decide to do, just have fun and enjoy!
