Svetosava pretzels - Saint Sava - a school holiday and a great children's celebration... When I was a child and lived in Banat, every year I looked forward to that day and going to the village church...

I spent the holidays at my grandparents' in the village and these pretzels were part of the church celebration. The children recited and received sweets and pretzels like this.

We have been preparing them for over a year, but these were special!!!

Saint Sava pretzels - Saint Sava - a school holiday and a great children's celebration... When I was a child and lived in Banat, every year I looked forward to that day and going to the village church...

Svetosava pretzels, ingredients:

  • 300 g of sharp flour
  • 500 g of soft flour type "400"
  • 40 g of fresh yeast
  • sugar (little)
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 2 dl of milk
  • 3 dl of warm water
  • 1 dl oil

Coating:

  • 1 piece of egg

Topping:

  • 3 spoons of soft flour
  • 1 teaspoon of salt

Svetosava pretzels, preparation:

  1. Put 2 tablespoons of wheat flour, a little sugar and a packet of yeast in warm milk and wait 10 minutes for the yeast to rise.
  2. Mix flour with oil and salt and add yeast and knead a dough that does not stick to your hands, but it must not be hard. Knead it well on a floured board for at least 5 minutes, adding flour if necessary.
  3. Cover the dough and leave it in a warm place for 30 minutes to double in size.
  4. Prepare the salty dressing: Mix salt and flour and slowly add cold water and knead so that there are no lumps. The thickness is like pancake batter.
  5. Tear or cut balls from the sour dough with a knife and thin them into a long stick with your fingers. Roll up the pretzel and place on a greased baking sheet.
  6. Let them soak for about 10 minutes while the oven is heated to 250 degrees. Before placing in the oven, coat the pretzels with beaten egg.
  7. Bake the pretzels until slightly yellow, take them out and put the salty dressing on them and return them for another 2-3 minutes so that they are nicely browned and the dressing dries up.
