Parmesan Peppercorn Breadsticks Recipes

PARMESAN BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Combine 3/4 cup warm water (105 degrees F to 110 degrees F) and the sugar in a food processor. Sprinkle the yeast on the surface and set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add the olive oil and pulse once. Add the flour and salt; pulse to form a smooth dough, about 2 minutes. Brush a large bowl with olive oil. Transfer the dough to the bowl and form into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Lay out a large sheet of parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Transfer the dough to the parchment and pat into a 6-by-12-inch rectangle. Brush the dough lightly with olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside 10 minutes. (At this point, you can refrigerate the dough, covered, up to 12 hours.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment; brush with olive oil. Cut the dough in half crosswise with a chef's knife or pizza cutter to make two 6-inch squares. Cut each half into 10 equal pieces.
• On a lightly floured surface, stretch and roll each piece of dough with your hands into a thin 12-to-14-inch-long rope. Transfer the ropes to the prepared baking sheets, arranging them about 1/2 inch apart.
• Whisk the egg white with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Brush the breadsticks lightly with the egg wash, then sprinkle with parmesan. Cover loosely with plastic wrap; set aside 10 minutes.
• Uncover the breadsticks and bake until golden and crisp, about 30 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Slide off the baking sheets and let cool on racks. (The breadsticks will crisp up as they cool; if they are still flexible, bake about 7 more minutes.) Store in an airtight container up to 3 days.

PARMESAN-BLACK PEPPER BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Lightly grease large cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray. In medium bowl, stir together Bisquick mix, water, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 2 tablespoons of the cheese until soft dough forms.
• Sprinkle work surface with Bisquick mix. Place dough on surface; roll to coat. With rolling pin, roll into 10x8-inch rectangle. Brush with butter. Sprinkle with remaining 3 tablespoons cheese; press in gently. Cut crosswise into 12 strips. Gently twist each strip. Place 1/2 inch apart on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with additional pepper.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes until light golden brown. Serve warm.

PARMESAN PEPPERCORN BREAD

Steps:

• Stir the flour, yeast, salt, water, pepper, and olive oil together in a large bowl until well combined. It should look sort of shaggy smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for two hours.
• Flour your countertop with 1 tbsp flour, turn the dough out, and sprinkle the top with another tbsp of flour. Knead for 2 minutes by hand (after that it will start to get too sticky, and we don't want to add too much flour to the dough, since it will change the identity of the bread). Place the dough back into the bowl, and let it rest for another hour, again covered with plastic.
• Break the Parmesan up into little pieces. Knead the parmesan chunks into the bread, keeping your hands wet at all times so the dough doesn't stick to you (before we used flour to prevent sticking, and now we're using water. You see? Keeping things in balance). Knead the dough enough to distribute the parmesan evenly, about 2 minutes. Let it rise for an hour (this is the final rise).

PARMESAN PUFF PASTRY BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit (200 Celsius).
• Unfold the puff pastry and roll it out thin (if not using ready-rolled).
• Brush it with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, Parmesan powder and rosemary. Press it down lightly with a rolling pin.
• Cut it into thin slices (0.5-inch/1.5-centimetre). Mine were 8-inch/20-centimetre long, but you can cut them into any length you like. Transfer them onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment, leaving small gaps between them.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 400 Fahrenheit (200 Celsius) for 8 minutes or until puffed and golden brown (see note 5).
• Enjoy!

With a wooden spoon, stir in enough of the remaining flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, until dough is soft, leaves side of bowl and is easy to handle (dough maybe slightly sticky).
• Sprinkle flour lightly on a countertop or large cutting board. Place dough on floured surface. Knead by folding dough toward you, then with the heels of your hands, pushing dough away from you with a short rocking motion. Move dough a quarter turn and repeat. Continue kneading about 5 minutes, sprinkling surface with more flour if dough starts to stick, until dough is smooth and springy. If dough is sticky, lightly flour your hands. Shape dough into a uniform roll that's 10 inches long. Cut roll crosswise into 32 equal parts. Roll each part into a pencil-like rope, 8 inches long for thick breadsticks or 10 inches long for thin breadsticks. Place 1 inch apart on cookie sheets. Brush with 2 tablespoons oil. Lightly spray sheets of plastic wrap with cooking spray; cover dough loosely with the plastic wrap, sprayed side down. Let rise in a warm place 20 minutes.
• Place an egg separator over a small bowl. Crack open the egg, letting the yolk fall into the center of the separator and the egg white slip through the slots into the bowl. Cover and refrigerate egg yolk up to 4 days to use in another recipe.
