Recipe Summary Crunchy Bread Stix - Fowlerville Pizzeria Style

Great crunchy bread sticks in the grand fashion of the old Fowlerville Pizzeria. A real treat!

Ingredients | Rotolo's Pizzeria Fairhope

2 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour

1 cup water

1 ½ teaspoons instant yeast

3 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

¼ cup toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Combine flour, water, yeast, dry milk powder, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and salt in the mixing bowl of a large stand mixer; knead into a soft, smooth dough, about 7 minutes.

Place into a warm area and let rise until doubled, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Transfer dough to an oiled work surface; roll with a rolling pin into a 10x20-inch rectangle. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Roll dough again lightly to press seeds into surface. Use a pizza wheel or sharp knife to cut dough along the shorter edge into 1/4- to 1/2-inch wide strips. Hold each breadstick by both ends and twist once.

Grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper. Transfer bread sticks to prepared baking sheets; cover with a kitchen towel and set aside for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Bake bread sticks in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes.

These go from pale to golden to burned very quickly; pay close attention to them as they approach the 10-minute mark.

If desired, brush the dough with an egg white beaten with 1 tablespoon of water. This may make the sticks just marginally less tasty, but the seeds will adhere much better.
