Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm water and yeast; let sit until frothy (about 5 minutes). Mix in flour, salt, and rosemary to form a soft dough.
- Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in an oiled bowl; cover and let rise in a warm area until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
Shaping and Boiling
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Punch down the dough, divide it into eight pieces, roll into ropes, and twist into pretzel shapes on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Boil each pretzel in a simmering baking soda solution for 30 seconds per side; return to the baking sheet.
- Make small cuts on top of each pretzel and stuff with mozzarella cubes.
Baking
- Brush with egg wash and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown.
