Soft Pretzels and Honey-Mustard Dip

Soft Pretzels Honey Mustard Horseradish Dip

Makes 12 small pretzels

Okay so it’s not really a recipe as much as it is a really, really tasty party trick. If you got people coming over and have a can of breadsticks lying around, don’t make breadsticks–make these.

Ingredients

  • 1 can refrigerated breadstick dough
  • 1 egg white, beaten
  • 1 tsp of water
  • Kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup grainy mustard
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1-2 tbsp prepared horseradish (depending on how strong you like it)

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 375F
  2. Pop open the can of breadsticks and roll them out individually into long strands. About 24 inches in length.
  3. Grab each side of the dough and hold it up in a ‘U’ shape. Fling the middle together so that it twists together and lay it down on the counter before it can unravel (it’s one quick motion). Press the ends down on the bottom of the pretzel. Yea, this step is hard but who are you trying to impress? They’ll be just as tasty if they’re ugly.
  4. Place pretzels on a parchment lined baking sheet, brush the top of pretzels with egg white then sprinkle with kosher salt.
  5. Bake about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Mix mustard, honey, and horseradish in a small bowl for dipping.
Watch Sam make it

    Potato/Leek Flatbread

    Flatbread pretty much just means very thin crust pizza – and this is a delicious one. Many supermarkets now sell balls of raw pizza dough – or you can make your own. Either way you’ll like this.

  • pork shrimp gyoza - the sam livecast

    Shrimp & Pork Gyoza

    More dumplings with this Asian classic that may have seemed nearly impossible to make at home prior to watching this show. In true Sam fashion, rather than make just shrimp or just pork, he had to combine them together into one epic Asian dumpling. Find the recipe here.

  • honey walnut shrimp - the sam livecast

    Not-Fried Honey Walnut Shrimp

    Normally these crispy shrimp are cooked in hot oil, but in the spirit of Sam’s ‘never-fry-anything-because-its-too-damn-smelly’ mantra, we decided we’d rather throw them into a pan for just a little color. Simple and of course, delicious. Find the recipe here.
