Breadsticks

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a small bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour. Mix until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Shape the Breadsticks

    Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into strips (about 1 inch wide) and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Season and Bake

    Brush the strips with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese if using. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
