PROCEDURE:

For the Soft Pretzel:
1. In a mixer bowl with hook attachment, whisk waffle mix, bread flour, yeast, and brown sugar together.

3. Grease a separate mixing bowl with vegetable oil and put the soft pretzel dough inside and cover it with cling wrap. Allow the dough to rise for 30 minutes.
4. Preheat oven at 230°C or 450°F.
5. Cut the dough into 6 equal parts or 100 grams each and roll them out into thin ropes. Form a U-shape and twist two ends to form a pretzel shape.
6. Whisk the egg to make an egg wash.
7. For blanching, boil water and add baking soda in a large pot. Then, put the pretzel dough one at a time for 30 seconds.
8. After blanching, brush a layer of egg wash on top of each dough.
9. Bake for 10 minutes or until it becomes deep brown.
