What makes a Pretzel different than its other breaded brethren? Its flexibility! Ever tried bending a baguette? Nothing but crumbs! But the pretzel can form its twisty shape effortlessly! Those yoga classes are really paying off! But what's the origin of the pretzel's iconic pose? Some say the shape is of religious significance, while another theory is that the shape allowed pretzels to be better stacked. Perhaps that particular shape simply tastes better when dipped in cheese? No matter the origin, the result is a perfectly pliable patisserie that's equally at home at a fancy beer haus or a baseball game!
