For 3 dozen 6-inch sticks or
For 1 dozen 6-inch Pretzels
1 tbsp Yeast
1 tbsp Sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 tbsp softened butter or softened margarine
1 cup warm (115-+ deg F) water
2 3/4 cups flour
Coarse Salt to sprinkle on Pretzels before baking
5 tsp baking soda mixed in 4 cups water in a non-aluminum saucepan!.
1 large slotted spoon to "go fishing"
Greased cookie sheet
Preheat oven to 475 F
Put yeast, sugar, salt, butter/marg, water and ONE CUP of the flour into a medium mixing bowl and pour in the water!.
Stir till all smooth, and yeast starts to bubble!.
At this point add the rest of the flour, stir till it is mixed in!.
When mixture is too stiff to stir with a spoon, begin kneading!.
Knead dough till smooth and till it no longer sticks to the bowl and your hands
Allow dough to rise to about double its height!.
While dough is rising, grease the cookie sheet!. and prepare the baking soda-water mixture and bring to a boil on stove!.
When dough is risen enough, punch down, knead for a minute or so, then divide and roll the 6-inch sticks with your hands, to about 1/2 inch in diameter, or 12-15-inch long rolls to make into the pretzel shape!.
Allow sticks or pretzels to sit for about 1-2 mins!. Place them into boiling water-baking soda mixture one or two at a time!.
Let the pretzels boil for 1 minute 10 seconds, then flip them over with the slotted spoon and boil on the other side for 1 minute and 10 seconds!.
This boiling step gives them a firm skin and adds some flavour!. Not boiling long enough leaves them too soft and allows them to rise too much!. Boiling too long makes them tough!.
Fish them out of the water, let them drip off and place them on the greased cookie sheet!.
When all the pretzels or sticks are done, sprinkle the coarse salt on them!.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or till sticks or pretzels are golden brown!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Looks like none of the earlier posters read your whole question and saw that you bought dough from the store already!. LOL
The dough that you bought, let it thaw out!. then divide that dough in 8 equal portions (if it is one roll of dough)!. Shape them into pretzels and let set for about 30 minutes!. Meanwhile get a large pan, enough for 10 cups of water!. Put 2/3rd cup of baking soda in the water and bring to a boil!. Put one pretzel in the water at a time for 45 seconds on each side, then drain and place on parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet!. Sprinkle on salt, then bake in a preheated 450 degree oven for 20 minutes!. yum! I make pretzels all the time, very easy to do, but I do make my own dough!. ;-0Www@FoodAQ@Com
