Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 11

Cooking spray to grease cookie sheets
1 package regular or fast-acting dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
2/3 cup water
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil
2 to 2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ Better for Bread™ bread flour or Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt or sesame seed

Steps:

  • Spray cookie sheets with the cooking spray. In a large bowl, place the yeast. In a 1-quart saucepan, heat the water over medium heat until warm and an instant-read thermometer reads 105°F to 115°F. Pour water over yeast; stir until yeast is dissolved. Stir in the sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup oil and 1 cup of the flour. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. With a wooden spoon, stir in enough of the remaining flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, until dough is soft, leaves side of bowl and is easy to handle (dough maybe slightly sticky).
  • Sprinkle flour lightly on a countertop or large cutting board. Place dough on floured surface. Knead by folding dough toward you, then with the heels of your hands, pushing dough away from you with a short rocking motion. Move dough a quarter turn and repeat. Continue kneading about 5 minutes, sprinkling surface with more flour if dough starts to stick, until dough is smooth and springy. If dough is sticky, lightly flour your hands. Shape dough into a uniform roll that's 10 inches long. Cut roll crosswise into 32 equal parts. Roll each part into a pencil-like rope, 8 inches long for thick breadsticks or 10 inches long for thin breadsticks. Place 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Brush with 2 tablespoons oil. Lightly spray sheets of plastic wrap with cooking spray; cover dough loosely with the plastic wrap, sprayed side down. Let rise in a warm place 20 minutes.
  • Place an egg separator over a small bowl. Crack open the egg, letting the yolk fall into the center of the separator and the egg white slip through the slots into the bowl. Cover and refrigerate egg yolk up to 4 days to use in another recipe.
  • Move the oven rack to the middle position of the oven. Heat the oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, beat the egg white and 1 tablespoon water slightly with a fork or wire whisk. Brush mixture over breadsticks, using a pastry brush; sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake 1 cookie sheet at a time 20 to 25 minutes or until breadsticks are golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Serve warm or cooled.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the breadsticks will taste. Use high-quality cheese, fresh herbs, and flavorful olive oil.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix the ingredients just until they come together, then knead the dough for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough to double in size and become light and airy. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
  • Bake the breadsticks at a high temperature: This will help the breadsticks to rise and become golden brown. Bake the breadsticks at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the breadsticks warm: Breadsticks are best served warm, so they can be enjoyed at their peak flavor. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce, pesto, or olive oil.

Conclusion:

Italian cheese breadsticks are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of breadsticks that are sure to please everyone. These breadsticks are perfect for dipping in your favorite sauce, or simply enjoying them on their own. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give these Italian cheese breadsticks a try!
