Preparation Steps
1
Warm the milk and crumble in the yeast. Add a teaspoon of sugar, then let it proof for 10 minutes.
2
In a bowl, combine the flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Add the proofed yeast, egg, and melted butter. Mix until a smooth, elastic dough forms.
3
Add the Tokaji wine and knead well. The aroma of the wine will infuse the dough, giving it a subtle wine flavor.
4
Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
5
Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal portions and shape them into pretzel shapes.
6
Place the pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them rise for another 15 minutes. This will make the pretzels even softer.
7
Brush the pretzels with beaten egg, then sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. This will create a delicious, slightly caramelized layer on top.
8
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and bake the pretzels for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
9
Let the pretzels cool on a wire rack and serve. The flavor of Tokaji wine gives a unique experience to the pastry.
