1 1/2 Cups warm water
1 TBS yeast
2 TBS sugar
3 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
3 TBS butter - melted (for the baking sheet)
Mix all ingredients (except melted butter) in a large bowl or electric mixer and knead for three minutes. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread melted butter onto an 11 x 17 inch baking sheet (I let the butter melt in the oven on the pan) Roll out the breadstick dough about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick and cut into strips with a pizza cutter. Twist slightly if desired and place about 1/2 inch apart on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with garlic salt, herbs of choice (rosemary, basil or thyme in some form and crushed finely) and parmesan cheese. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes. Bake 15-20 minutes at 375 degrees until golden brown.
For me these have become my favorite breadsticks - they are wonderful!!!
