• Turn the dough onto your work surface and divide it into 6 pieces. (Do not flour your work surface.)
• Roll each piece into a rope roughly 1-inch in diameter then cut each rope into 1-inch pieces to form the pretzel bites.
• In batches, add the bites to the boiling baking soda mixture for 30 seconds then use a slotted spoon to remove them onto the oiled baking sheets.
• Brush the bites with the egg wash and sprinkle them with kosher salt.
• Bake the bites until golden brown in color, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the pans (between racks and turning to rotate pans) halfway through.
• Remove the soft pretzel bites from the oven and serve.
