Divide dough into 6 portions; shape each portion into a rough log. Cover and rest for 15-30 minutes until doughis relaxed. Roll dough into about 28 inch/71 cm ropes. Shape ropes into U; criscross in the middle of U; fold ends toward bottom. Place in floured baking pan. Cover and rest until light and puffy, about 30 minutes.
Line another large baking pan with parchment paper. Bring water to a boil; stir in baking soda. Boil pretzels for 15 seconds each side; place on parchment-lined baking pan. Sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake at 400F/200C for about 15-20 minutes until well browned. Brush with melted butter.
