Recipe Introduction
Posted by: Alliea***********I have been making this recipe for several years now. It is from Taste Of Home.I used to crave those soft breadsticks from Olive Garden , but once I found this fairly easy recipe I can make them whenever I want.I use Instant yeast and my KA I omit the cornmeal and use silicone mats or parchment.
While they are still hot I lightly brush them with melted butter mixed with one or two crushed garlic cloves
List of Ingredients
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
Cornmeal
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
Coarse salt, optional
Recipe
In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add sugar, salt and oil; stir until dissolved.
Add 2 cups of flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a
greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled,
about 1 hour. Punch dough down and divide into 12 portions. Using your hands, roll
each portion into a 10-in. x 1/2-in. strip. Place 1 inch apart on a greased baking sheet
sprinkled with cornmeal (I omit the cornmeal). Let rise, uncovered, until doubled, about 45-60 minutes. Beat
egg white and water; brush over breadsticks. Sprinkle with coarse salt if desired. I use coarse sea salt) Don't overdo the salt but if you do you can brush some off.
Place
baking sheet on middle rack of oven; place a large shallow pan filled with boiling water on
the lowest rack. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes. Brush again with egg white. Bake 5
minutes more or until golden brown.
Yield: 1 dozen.
