What are the Different Types of Pretzels?
The two main kinds of pretzels are soft and hard. Soft pretzels are often served with mustard or dips, while hard pretzels are more likely to be eaten plain. Both types are popular, and usually quite inexpensive, snacks. Both types of pretzels are baked rather than fried, but they are high in sodium and soft pretzels are often brushed with butter before salt and flavorings are added.
