Here's the written recipe, and a video ( of someone who is theoretically following his recipe (not me). Sometimes it helps to get the visual).
I haven't made them in about a year. Its usually something I do after a sow storm, while we are stuck inside. When the kids were younger, I made them, but my pretzel shaping ability was poor, at best, so I just made long ( untwisted ) pretzels and called them snake pretzels. The kids thought they were the greatest ( cooler than regular pretzels) that to this day , at the ages of 20 and 22, they still refer to them as snake pretzels.
I got this from the internet , not my copied version that I may have made a few changes to. If I can find the recipe in my book and there are changes I made, ill post the changes.
