What snacks do you like to make for a crowd? Mine included chips and onion dip (a staple of my Midwestern childhood) and castelvetrano green olives. But King Arthur of Flour Famous recently sent us four bread mix kits, and here’s what we thought…
Have you tried King Arthur’s Bread Mix Kit? Each loaf comes with pre-measured ingredients and simple instructions, so even bad cooks (like us) can experience the “joy of making bread.” The best part? Each kit gets you fresh, warm breads like pretzels, focaccia and garlic bread delivered to your table in less than an hour.
Soft and chewy pretzels are especially easy to make. Here are the simple steps: Combine all kit ingredients with oil and water in a large bowl and knead the dough with your hands for three minutes. Then, let it rise for 15 minutes, then divide the dough into balls and toss them into the glaze mixture. Finally, sprinkle each dough ball with salt and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. (Here’s the full recipe if you want to see it.)
Don’t they look delicious? Of course, it tastes great with Dijon mustard; or, if you have a sweet tooth, add cream cheese, sugar, and cinnamon. I want them to go to a drinks party in the evening and the boys have asked to make them for a neighbor’s movie night this month.
As a certified B Corp, King Arthur Baking is determined to lead the way in regenerative agriculture by milling 100% of its flour from renewable wheat by 2030. This will reduce supply, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30%, and is developing packaging containing 100% deforestation-free fiber and at least 50% post-consumer recycled content.
Which King Arthur Baking Bread Mix Kit would you like to make? They have soft pretzels, pull-apart garlic bread (perfect for a hearty pasta dinner), fluffy focaccia, and herb bread. You can find them here.
Thank you so much, King Arthur!
