Title: Luigi's Hot Dog Dippers
Categories: Breads, Beef, Snacks
Yield: 8 servings

4 ts Active dry yeast
1 ts Granulated sugar
1 1/4 c Warm water (110+:F/43+:C)
4 c All-purpose flour
1/4 c Light brown sugar
1 1/2 ts Salt
1 tb Olive oil; to grease mixing
- bowl
Beef, Turkey Tofu-pups
1 lg Egg
+=BEATEN WITH=+
2 ts Water
Sesame seeds
Poppy seeds
Wheat germ

In a small bowl or measuring cup, dissolve 1 teaspoon
granulated sugar, and 4 teaspoons yeast in 1 1/4 cups
warm water. Place the bowl or cup in a warm spot for 10
~15 minutes, or until the yeast has become foamy. Talk
to kids about why the yeast is foaming. The yeast
gobbles up the sugar producing carbon dioxide and MORE
yeast. Carbon dioxide creates bubbles and makes the
yeast look foamy. Let kids smell the bowl of yeast -
there is a strong bread-like odor as the carbon dioxide
gases are being released.

While your yeast is foaming, measure 4 cups of flour, 1
1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 cup brown sugar into a large
mixing bowl. Stir to combine and make a well (or hole)
in the center of your flour.

Once your yeast is frothy, itª€™s time to make the dough.
Pour the yeast mixture into the well. Mix the yeast and
flour mixture to form dough. If the dough is too wet,
you can add a few tablespoons of flour.

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5
to 7 minutes, or until the texture of the dough is
smooth. Kneading the dough is lots of fun for kids. Have
them wash and thoroughly dry their hands, then flour
them to keep the dough from sticking.

Use olive oil to grease a large mixing bowl and transfer
your ball of dough to the bowl. Roll the dough around
the bowl, coating it with olive oil. Place a kitchen
towel, or plastic wrap over your bowl and set it in a
warm place to rise. The dough will need to rise for 1
hour, or until it has doubled in size.

While your dough is rising set the oven @ 450+:F/232+:C
Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and prep your
hot dogs. If you are using regular hot dogs, cut them
cross-wise, into 2 or 3 pieces.

Once your dough has risen, punch it down and divide it
into 12 -15 pieces. Roll these pieces into long 12?
ropes. Use a kitchen scissor to cut the ropes into 3
shorter ropes. * Kids will love rolling dough into ropes
and snakes!

Wrap the pretzel dough ropes around your hot dogs and
place them on parchment covered cookie sheets.

Bake the hot dog dippers for 8 minutes, or until the
pretzels are slightly browned and the hot dogs are
heated.
