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.

Steps:
- Fit your food processor with a steel blade. Place the bread flour, yeast, sugar, salt, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and softened butter in the processor; pulse to blend. Stir together hot water, milk and egg. Start the processor and slowly pour in the milk mixture into the feed tube until a ball forms around the blade. Run for 30 seconds to knead. Remove dough from processor and knead briefly by hand. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
- Deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 10x12 inch rectangle. Use a knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough lengthwise into ten strips, and then cut these strips in half. Brush tops of strips with 2 tablespoons melted butter, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Cover, and let rise until nearly double, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 23 minutes, or until golden brown. Turn broiler on, and brush breadsticks with remaining melted butter and Parmesan cheese. Broil just until the cheese starts to turn light brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.
