Dough Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon sea salt for sprinkling
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped, optional

Method
 

Prepare the Dough
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Add flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Shape and Bake
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Cut the dough into strips to form breadsticks.
  4. Place the breadsticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt, rosemary, and parmesan cheese.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
