“Brezen” is the Bavarian word for pretzels and today I am going to introduce these to you. So far I have only bought this staple here in Munich, Germany. I was always scared of the lye bath, which is required for a true Bavarian pretzel. However, I finally decided to give it a try and have to say, wow, homemade and from scratch taste so much better than bought, even if from a nice bakery! So today I will do my best to guide you to these. Beware, even in Germany there are differences in how pretzels are made. I will explain below, I hope I can interest you in making these.
