    Mix 1 cup flour, sugar, salt and undissolved yeast. Heat
    1 cup water and margarine to 120 to 130 degrees. Gradually
    add to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of
    mixer. Add 1/2 cup flour. Beat at high speed 2 minutes.

    Place on greased baking sheets. Cover; let rest 5 minutes.
    Mix egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water; brush on pretzels.
    Sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake at 375 degrees 15 minutes
    or until done. Cool on racks.
