Place an oven rack in center of the oven. Then turn on theoven and

cups flour, 1/2 c at a time, stirring to blend after each addition.
The dough should be well blended. Sprinkle a little of the remaining
flour over a clean kitchen surface. Turn the dough out of the bowl
onto the floured surface. Knead until the dough is smooth and  elastic,
sprinkling with flour if dough is sticky. Pull the dough  into 12 equal
pieces. Roll 1 piece into a rope about 15 inches long,  then shape the
rope into a pretzel or letter. Put the pretzel on one  of the baking
sheets and repeat w/ the remaining pieces of dough.  Break the egg into
the sm. bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water and stir  together w/ the whisk.
Brush the egg wash over each pretzel, using  the pastry brush. Sprinkle
with coarse salt with your fingers. Put  the oven mitts on and put a
baking sheet in the oven. Bake until the  pretzels are golden brown.
15-20 min. Wearing mitts, carefully  transfer the sheet to a heatproof
surface. Bake the second sheet of  pretzels. Using the spatula,
transfer the pretzels from the baked  sheet to the rack to cool a
little before serving them. Cool the  remaining pretzels when they are
finished baking. FROM: My First  Baking Book.  From Gemini's MASSIVE
