Bread Sticks
Using my
favourite new product – pizza dough from The Northern Dough Co. -
here's another idea and it's not pizza. The fastest bread sticks
ever.
One
dough ball
15g
finely grated Parmesan
30g
of unsalted butter
garlic
powder or garlic salt to sprinkle
Take one dough
ball and defrost in your fridge.
When defrosted
lightly flour a baking tray and your working surface - cut the dough
into 8 similar sized pieces. Roll each piece of dough between your
hands to create a sausage shape. As a guide I rolled out each piece
to 12cms in length (4½”) making sure to leave space between each
piece. Cover the bread sticks with cling film until you're ready to
garnish and bake.
Leave at room
temperature for your bread sticks to prove – in other words to
“rest”. I left mine for an hour.
When you're ready
pre-heat your oven as high as it will go – in my case
220fan/240c/Gas 9.
Melt the butter
and brush each bread stick, sprinkle with garlic powder or garlic
salt if you prefer and finish with finely grated Parmesan.
Bake on high for
4 minutes.
Serve with pesto,
or, my personal favourite the classic mixture of Balsamic vinegar and
extra virgin olive oil and turn it into a help yourself starter with
Italian meats and cheeses – yum! You could try a little fusion and
serve with a baked Camembert.
