Add enough additional flour to make a stiff dough.
Knead for 10 minutes or until dough is elastic.
Form dough into a ball and coat with butter.

Pinch off a small ball of dough and form a coil 20″ long, 1/2″ in
diameter.
Shape into pretzel form (or not as you desire).
(If making pretzel shapes, wet the ends to help them stay together).
Dissolve baking soda in 4 cups water and bring to a boil.
Drop one pretzel at a time into the water and let boil until it
floats.

Braised Celery

Recipe By : Cook’s Illustrated 7/8/93
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cook’s Vegetables

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
Cook’s Illustrated 7/8/93
2 tablespoons Butter
1 tablespoon Olive oil
2 large Heads celery — tough outer
Stalks removed — each head
lengthwise — into 6
(reserve 1/2 cup — leafy tops for sauce
1/2 teaspoon Salt

1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat butter and oil in a large ovenproof
skillet. Add celery pieces and saut, turning once, until golden on
both sides, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle celery with salt, add about 1/2
cup water, and transfer skillet to oven. 2. Braise celery for 10
minutes, then turn. Continue braising celery until tender but not
falling apart, another 10 to 15 minutes. Return skillet to stove;
simmer celery over medium heat until any remaining liquid thickens to
form a nice glaze. (Can loosely cover and set aside at room temperature
up to 6 hours.) Note: When preparing the celery, make sure not to trim
off the root end—you’ll need it to hold the stalks together.
