How To Tie A Good Tie Knot Recipes

GARLIC TIE-THE-KNOTS

Steps:

• For the dough: Combine the flour, yeast, kosher salt and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and stir to combine. Add the warm water and oil and beat until the dough comes together, about 2 minutes. If the dough is too wet, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is still soft and slightly sticky but you can turn it out. Knead on a lightly floured work surface if the dough is still shaggy. Lightly oil a large bowl. Transfer the dough to the oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let stand until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• For the garlic butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and wait for it to start sizzling, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the parsley and crushed red pepper flakes. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Turn the dough out onto the surface and divide the dough into 3 equal pieces. Divide each of those pieces into 6 pieces. Working 1 piece at a time, roll it out into a 6- to 7-inch rope, then tie the rope into a knot. Place the knot on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough.
• Brush the knots generously with the garlic butter and sprinkle lightly with the flaky sea salt. Bake until cooked through and golden all over, about 20 minutes.
