Main Ingredients

▢ 1.5 cups warm water 110°F (43°C)
▢ 1 packet active dry yeast 2 1/4 teaspoons
▢ 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
▢ 4 cups all-purpose flour

Preparation Steps

In a large bowl, whisk warm water, yeast, and sugar together. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it begins to foam.
Add the flour, salt, and melted butter, and mix until combined. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 3-4 minutes.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise for 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Divide dough into 6 sections and roll each into ropes, then cut into bites.
Boil water and add baking soda. Boil bites in batches for 20 seconds and place on a prepared baking sheet.
Brush each bite with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Bake for 12 minutes until golden brown.
