Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 150 milliliters Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 100 grams Provolone cheese, shredded
- 1 large Egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, dry yeast, sugar, and salt.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm water and olive oil.
Using a wooden spoon or your hands, mix the ingredients until a sticky dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Add the shredded provolone cheese to the dough and knead gently to incorporate it evenly.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 24 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a thin stick about 8-10 inches long and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each grissini.
Brush the grissinis with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the grissinis are golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
