Directions
The Ultimate Breadsticks,I did it! I finally found the recipe for the absolute best breadsticks. This recipe makes big, beautiful breadsticks and lots of them too. I experimented with the original recipe and made several adjustments and made many variations as well. The recipe can easily be halved, but you might as well make them all and freeze what you don’t use (we never have to do this though, they all get gobbled up).,Very tender, but I like mine a little bit chewier . I tweaked the recipe very slightly : halved it, used my electric mixer with the hook to knead for 5-6 mins . Had to add an extra 3-4 tbsp water as it was way too dry without . I didn’t let rise in bowl, I cut into 20 pieces(remember, this was half the original recipe!if I make again, I would roll into about 25 pieces.) and rolled into 6 inch ropes . Let rise for about 1 hour and baked as directed . Brushed with garlic/parsley/oregano butter . They came out more like hot dog rolls than a bread stick, but very very good . Will make again !
