These are a fantastic, light, crunchy, melt-in-your-mouth breadstick. I always serve them at dinner parties or showers. Ingredients:
1/2 cup beer, warm |
1/2 cup warm water |
1 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast |
3 cups flour |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
3 tablespoons fennel seeds (optional) |
1 egg |
1/4 cup whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Mix beer, water, and yeast- let sit until bubbles (about 10 minutes).
2. In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, olive oil, and seeds. Combine with yeast mix with an electric mixer with a dough hook or knead by hand until smooth. DON'T OVERMIX! If dough is sticky add a little flour.
3. Place in oiled bowl and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
4. Preheat over to 425. Cover cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper and grease with cooking spray.
5. Flatten dough with rolling pin to 1 thick and cut into 1/2 thick strips.
6. Whisk cream and egg together, then brush over sticks.
7. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
