Looking for a breadstick recipe
I've bought these bread sticks from any of several bakeries in Little Italy in the Bronx, New York. I've not made any myself tho I have been baking a variety of breads for years and years. Mostly I've simply followed established recipes and add/subtract substituting part of the flour with other types rather than experiment with developing a new recipe myself.
Can someone suggest a recipe to make these? They are not light like the long thin breadsticks, but quite solid/dense and hard. And they of course have a lovely flavor.
rising bread sticks! Maybe a 60/40 rye/wheat combo
They are most definitely not rye. And I would hesitate to even say they used semolina flour, though I might add some once I establish a recipe. The picture, taken on my kitchen counter shows the sticks darker than they are. Some, however, are cooked well done. They appear to be hand rolled because they are very irregular in length and diameter. One stick can appear to be brown at a thin end and almost underdone at the other, thick end.
