convince every die-hard Swabian, the rolls are light, the pretzel crust pleasantly soft

Carry out all steps in a warm and draft-free place; a draft and all your work will be for nothing! Soak the psyllium husks in water for 10 minutes, crumble the yeast and add it to the water, whisking until smooth. Add the other ingredients and knead vigorously with a food processor for 10 minutes until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. In the meantime, cut 12 pieces of baking paper. Wearing oiled disposable gloves, knead the dough into approximately 12 pieces and shape them (sticks, rolls, or pretzels are very difficult to make, as they don’t hold their shape well). Cover the dough pieces with cling film and/or a damp kitchen towel and let them rise in the oven at 30°C for 20 minutes. Covering them is important, as gluten-free dough dries out much faster! Bring 1 liter of water to a boil and slowly add the baking soda. Be careful, it will bubble a lot! Place 3 dough pieces at a time into the boiling baking soda water and cook for exactly 1 minute (longer cooking time will cause the dough pieces to collapse). Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 210°C. Cover and let the dough rise for another 20 minutes in a warm, draft-free place. Then cut the rolls crosswise, making 2-3 deep cuts across the rolls, so that the surface cracks slightly but does not cut the roll in half. Sprinkle with coarse salt if desired and bake for 20-22 minutes.
