How to escape double quotes in in thymeleaf?

I have the following code that I believe I need to escape in thymeleaf. 

th:required=""

It throws the following error:

org.thymeleaf.exceptions.TemplateProcessingException: Could not parse as expression: ""

Any suggestions?

The problem isn't that you need an escape, it's that you need an expression that Thymeleaf can interpret as true or false. th:required="${expression}" tells it to include the required attribute if expression is true and leave it out otherwise. If you want to include it unconditionally, drop the Thymeleaf namespace and just include an ordinary required="required".
