GRISSINI

Yield Makes about 32 long thin breadsticks

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon active dry yeast (from a 1/4-ounce package)
1 1/2 cups warm water (105-115°F), divided
1/2 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 cups semolina flour
1 1/2 cups Italian "00" flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Equipment: a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment

Steps:

  • Stir together yeast, 1/4 cup warm water, and sugar in bowl of mixer and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, start over with new yeast.)
  • Add semolina flour, "00" flour, and salt to yeast mixture along with oil and remaining 1 1/4 cups warm water and mix at low speed until a very soft dough forms. If necessary, mix in just enough "00" flour (up to 1/4 cup) to prevent dough from sticking to side of bowl. Increase speed to medium and beat, scraping down side of bowl occasionally, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes (dough will be soft). Scrape dough into center of bowl and dust with 2 tablespoons additional "00" flour. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let dough rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower thirds. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Punch down dough and turn out onto a floured surface (do not knead), then cut dough in half. Keeping 1 half covered with plastic wrap, cut other half into 16 equal pieces and roll each into a 15- to 16-inch rope (1/8 to 1/4 inch thick), lightly dusting your hands if dough is sticky. Arrange ropes 1/2 inch apart on 1 baking sheet, then make more ropes with remaining dough and arrange on second baking sheet.
  • Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until grissini are pale golden and crisp, 30 to 35 minutes total. Transfer to racks to cool.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality prosciutto for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have time to make the dough from scratch, you can use a store-bought pizza dough.
  • Be sure to roll the dough out very thinly, so that the grissini are crispy.
  • Bake the grissini until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the grissini warm or at room temperature, with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Grissini with prosciutto is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a snack that is both flavorful and satisfying. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give grissini with prosciutto a try. You won't be disappointed!
