Ever wondered how to get that perfect, golden-brown crust and chewy texture on a soft pretzel? The secret lies in using food grade lye. Join us as we explore the process step-by-step, share tips for handling lye safely, and guide you through creating the most delicious pretzels you've ever tasted.

A few safety tips for using lye:

- Be sure it's food grade lye

- Be careful not to touch the lye with bare hands - you might even want to wear gloves

- Use a stainless steel pot

- Add the lye to your water (not the other way around)

- Be careful not to splash or lay utensils on your countertop

- Wash everything you use well afterward

We erred on the side of caution and used a fairly low concentration of lye for our water bath. It's a great way to ease into it and get comfortable with lye. If you're unsure about it you can also use baking soda instead of lye. We've got both methods in the recipe (linked below).

These pretzels are super easy to make and they bake up beautifully. Our pretzels ended up more like a pretzel bun, but we actually loved them that way. We sliced them open and made sandwiches with cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers and red onion. It was the perfect lunch!

This week, Erin takes on a recipe for Scotch Eggs using quail eggs. It's a bite-sized version of this classic British pub fare and we are here for it!

After soft-boiling, Erin had to carefully peel the tiny quail eggs, which was a job in itself! Then they're wrapped in sausage meat, rolled in bread crumbs and then fried.

Rather than deep frying, Erin pan-fried her Scotch Eggs and they turned out great. So if you're not sure about trying this one because you don't want the mess and smell of deep frying (you're not alone, we dislike it too!), don't let that stop you. You can totally make this at home. And they're delicious!

We enjoyed these Scotch Eggs with a little pickled pearl onion, which we thought was the perfect accompaniment to this rich savoury snack. Find the recipe below.
