How much flour should I use?

The recipe specifies about 250 g, but the amount is adjusted as needed: add flour until the dough is just firm enough to be rolled out thin without sticking.

How is a pretzel shaped?

Roll the dough into a thin rope, form it into a loop and cross the ends over each other to make the classic pretzel shape.

Tea Pretzels

Tea pretzels from 1900: butter-rich pretzels of sugar, sweet cream, melted butter and flour, rolled thin, shaped into pretzels and baked at a moderate heat on a greased sheet.
