Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350º.
Measure warm water into a large bowl. Sprinkle on yeast and stir until soft. Add salt, sugar, and flour. Mix and knead dough with hands. Roll and twist into any desired shapes. Place on greased cookie sheet. Brush with beaten egg. Sprinkle with salt. Bake 12-15 minutes.
Tricks and tips:
When you paint on the egg, be generous. Although these won’t get super-browned (the regular flour version didn’t either), the egg does help.
Also don’t be shy with the salt. We were with the first batch and they really needed more. The second batch was perfect.
