Bread Sticks

Method

Place the flour, yeast and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer. Carefully measure the water and add to the flour mixture. Using a dough hook, mix on medium speed for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Transfer to a lightly floured bench and knead for 2-3 minutes. Divide into 12 equal portions. Roll into balls, then place each ball on a lightly floured surface and roll into a sausage shape about 25cm long. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper, brush with a little olive oil, then sprinkle with polenta (or poppy/sesame seeds) and sea salt. Set aside in a warm place for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 220C (fan). Bake 10-15 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Makes 12


* Make sure to measure the flour and water carefully – accurate quantities are important in baking.
