   Add salt and another 200 ml lukewarm water. Work into a smooth dough with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes. Knead the dough on a floured work surface and roll out into a 20 x 40 cm rectangle.

   Separate the egg. Spread the dough with some beaten egg white and sprinkle with caraway and coarse salt. Roll up the dough from the long side and cut into 4 cm wide pieces. Using a floured spoon handle, press the pieces down firmly between the cut edges in the middle so that the sides curve up sharply.
