Preparation Steps

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add melted butter and the yeast mixture, mix until a soft dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll dough into a long rope and cut into 12 pieces. Tie each piece into a knot.
• Place knots on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
• Mix minced garlic and chopped parsley with melted butter. Brush garlic butter over hot knots before serving.
