6 servings
For the dough
- 1 ½ tsp active dry yeast
Ingredient noteLow histamine diets often flag yeast because of its association with fermentation, but baker's yeast is a fresh cultured leavening that does not carry the pre-formed histamine of aged or fermented foods, and the small amount used to raise dough adds little. It is likely fine here. If you prefer to always avoid active dry yeast, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 cup warm water (110°f / 43°c)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the baking soda bath
- 8 cups water
- ⅓ cup baking soda
For finishing
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ tsp coarse pretzel salt or flaky sea salt

Add the melted butter (from the dough portion), fine salt, and flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–6 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and springs back slowly when poked.
