MAKING

Once the dough has risen transfer the dough to a lightly greased work surface, and divide it into six equal pieces.

Roll the six pieces of dough into 12" to 15" ropes. Cut each rope crosswise into about 12 pieces.

For baking soda water bath – in a bowl, pour in warm water and add in baking soda. Stir well.

Place the bites into the solution, gently swish them around, and leave them there for a couple of minutes. Transfer them to a prepared baking sheet.

Bake the bites for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and roll them in the melted butter.
