Soft Baked Pretzels And A Cheesy Mustard Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Cheese sauce -- Add the beer (or milk), cheese, mustard, and onion to a small sauce pan and heat up. Garnish with the sauteed bacon.
• Bread -- Separate the 12 bread sticks and then cut each lengthwise in half to make 24 bread sticks. Now roll each one to make a small rope. Now make a knot. I don't care how you make the knot, use any design you want. I like to make a '"O" the cross the bottom and twist and then flip the cross piece back over the "O", but again, just make a knot, it isn't important that they look perfect.
• Brush the breadstick with egg and then add the salt. Bake 375 for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
• Serve with the cheese sauce. The perfect quick appetizer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425ºF (218 C)
• Roll pizza dough into balls slightly smaller than the size of a golf ball.
• Bring a pot of water to a simmer, then stir in the baking soda. Add dough balls and cook for 30 seconds. Remove from the water and place them on a parchment-lined sheet tray.
• Brush each dough ball with egg wash and sprinkle with a bit of coarse salt. Place tray in oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until pretzels turn a deep brown color.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the milk while whisking. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the milk begins to thicken slightly. Add in the French's Honey Mustard, cheese, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until cheese melts and the sauce is smooth. Let the cheese sauce bubble for a few more minutes to thicken up slightly. Serve immediately with the pretzel bites!
• Enjoy!
