Cooks in 15 minutes
Ingredients
350g of white bread flour
7g of dried quick yeast
1tsp salt
200ml milk
50ml olive oil
50g of cheddar or parmesan
Chopped fresh or dried herbs for sprinkling or rolling
Butter or oil for the baking trays
Measure the flour into a mixing bowl and mix in the yeast. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, olive oil and cheese. Mix together through the sticky phase until you have a nice smooth ball to work with. We found that the oil content really helped the dough to be easily workable. Lightly flour your work surface and tear off small pieces of dough to roll into thin snakes around 15cm long and 8mm thick, this will give you classic grissini breadsticks. Place on a greased baking sheet and keep covered with a damp tea towel while you create the rest. Keep the main ball of dough covered either with a damp tea towel, cling film or in a bowl with a lid, this will stop the dough drying out while you work. Have fun and try out lots of shapes if you feel like it. In our family we each seemed to have our own style. My son particularly liked adding the seasoning and completely covering the dough! Even so they all ended up being tasty and we loved sitting at the table together with busy hands creating shapes.
Heat the oven to 180 degrees c and bake for approximately 15 minutes depending on the thickness of your creations. Serve with dips of your choice. We chose sweet potato and smoked paprika alongside pea, ricotta and coriander which worked well. Have fun!
Deliciously soft, fluffy, savoury buns, which when broken open, reveals a sage and onion filling dispersed through the bun. Spread on some good quality salted butter and you are done. Excellent for picnics, accompanying soup or just as a snack by itself. They freeze very well and I tend to bake 3 batches in one go every few weeks as they are a perfect after school snack and a great way to utilise my very prolific sage plant!
This recipe is a white bread filled with a gorgeous buttery mushroom and garlic filling. It is mouthwatering and can accompany any meal such as pizza, lasagne, pasta etc. Or it can just be eaten on it's own as a tasty snack
