Hanover Whole Wheat Soft Pretzels
What it is
These are soft pretzels made with whole wheat flour and a sourdough starter. The sourdough process contributes a subtle tang and a slightly chewier texture compared to pretzels made with commercial yeast. They are pre-baked and ready to be heated, offering a convenient snack option. The whole wheat flour provides a heartier flavor and a different color than traditional white flour pretzels. They come in individual portions for easy serving.
How people cook with it
These pretzels are a versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or as part of a meal. They are perfect for quick lunches or satisfying cravings.
- Snack on their own

To enjoy these pretzels, you can warm them in an oven or toaster oven for a few minutes until they are heated through and slightly crisped. They can also be microwaved for a quicker, softer result. For a delightful experience, consider serving them with your favorite dipping sauces like mustard, cheese sauce, or a sweet honey mustard. They are also a great addition to a charcuterie board or as a base for a creative appetizer.
How it differs from similar foods
The sourdough starter gives these pretzels a distinct, slightly sour flavor profile and a chewier texture than standard pretzels. The use of whole wheat flour also imparts a nuttier taste and a denser crumb. This combination offers a more complex flavor and mouthfeel than typical pretzels.
