Herbed Soft Breadsticks Recipes

SOFT GARLIC PARMESAN BREADSTICKS

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.

Steps:

• In a large bowl stir together 3/4 cup of the all-purpose flour, the yeast, rosemary, and pepper. In a small saucepan heat milk, butter, sugar, and salt just until warm (120°F to 130°F) and butter almost melts.
• Add milk mixture to flour mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir in semolina flour. Let stand for 1 minute. Stir in as much of the remaining all-purpose flour as you can.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining all-purpose flour to make a stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (8 to 10 minutes total). Shape into a ball. Place in a lightly greased large bowl, turning once to grease surface. Cover; let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (45 to 60 minutes). (To serve today, omit Step 4 and continue as directed in Steps 5 through 7.)
• Punch dough down. Place dough in a freezer container; seal. Freeze for up to 3 weeks. Thaw dough overnight in refrigerator before using.
• Punch down dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes. Line a baking sheet with foil; grease foil. Roll one dough portion into a 10x9-inch rectangle. Cut lengthwise into 24 strips.
• For each breadstick, pinch together ends of three strips; braid the dough strips. Pinch the other ends together. Tuck under the thin, pinched ends.** Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough portion. Cover; let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (about 30 minutes).
• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small bowl beat together egg white and the water. Lightly brush egg white mixture on breadsticks. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.

CRUNCHY HERBED WHOLE WHEAT BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, add Lukewarm water, yeast and sugar.
• Give it a quick mix and keep it aside.
• The yeast mixture will take around 10 minutes to bloom.
• In a bowl of your stand mixer with hook attachment or a wide bowl add in the Flours, Bloomed yeast mixture and give it a quick mix.
• Now add the salt, sesame seeds, dry herbs (crush it slightly between your hands) and mix again.
• Now slowly add the milk and knead the dough.
• Do not add all the milk at one go, as different flours have different absorption capacity. Add it slowly.
• Once you get the dough all combined , knead the dough for 2-3 minutes in a stand mixer or 5-6 minutes with hand.
• Try to form a rough ball shape. Add oil slowly to the dough.
• Once you are able to make an elastic dough, let the dough rest until it doubles in size. (Around 1-1.5 hours)
• Once the dough is double in size, knead it for a min.
• Divide the dough into 2 equal size portions.
• Roll each dough into a large rectangle.
• Cut into 1-1.5 cm strips and roll each strip.
• Place this in a prepared baking sheet. Keep some space in between as they will rise during baking.
• Preheat the oven to 200 Deg C / 390 Deg F.
• Lightly brush the breadsticks with milk. (This is optional, but it gives a nice golden colour)
• Bake the breadsticks for 20-30 minutes in a preheated oven until golden brown. (I like to turn the breadsticks in between so that they are golden overall, this is an optional step.)
