ALMOST-FAMOUS BREADSTICKS



Almost-Famous Breadsticks image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 16 breadsticks

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 package active dry yeast
4 1/4 cups all-purpose flour,plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons unsalted butter,softened
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fine salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter,melted
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of dried oregano

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Place 1/4 cup warm water in the bowl of a mixer; sprinkle in the yeast and set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add the flour, butter, sugar, fine salt and 1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons warm water; mix with the paddle attachment until a slightly sticky dough forms, 5 minutes.
  • Knead the dough by hand on a floured surface until very smooth and soft, 3 minutes. Roll into a 2-foot-long log; cut into 16 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. Knead each piece slightly and shape into a 7-inch-long breadstick; arrange 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with a cloth; let rise in a warm spot until almost doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Make the topping: Brush the breadsticks with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Bake until lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt with the garlic powder and oregano. Brush the warm breadsticks with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle with the flavored salt.

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly: Ensure the water is warm enough (around 110-115°F) to activate the yeast. If the water is too hot, it will kill the yeast, and if it's too cold, the yeast won't activate.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic provides the best flavor. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use garlic powder, but the flavor won't be as pronounced.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: A warm place will help the dough rise quickly. You can place the dough in a warm oven with the light on, or you can place it in a sunny spot in your kitchen.
  • Don't over-mix the dough: Over-mixing the dough will make the breadsticks tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Bake the breadsticks until golden brown: The breadsticks should be golden brown on top and cooked through in the center. If you're not sure if they're done, insert a toothpick into the center of a breadstick. If the toothpick comes out clean, the breadsticks are done.

Conclusion:

Homemade garlic breadsticks are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create breadsticks that are sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give these homemade garlic breadsticks a try. You won't be disappointed!
