Grissinis

Hubby loves Grissinis, so here's a reason to try to make them :) I have to admit that he likes the Greek version but I will try today the original ones from Torino...  that I like sooo much :) And with the remaining dough, I will make some nice small rounded breads, what do you say?
Who does not like those crunchy delicate fluffy delicious thinny bread sticks? No excuses of not trying, as it is pretty easy...

Ingredients
500 gr of good quality flour for bread
40gr yeast
a bit of salt, sugar, honey and olive oil
1 cup of warm water

Procedure

1. Start by diluting the yeast in the cup of warm water and a bit of sugar and leave it for about 10min.
2. Make a nice elastic dough by mixing flour, olive oil and the above mixture. 
3. Leave the dough to rest for about an hour in a warm place covered with a thick blanket (The traditional greek way of doing such stuff :)
4. Roll out the dough using a cylinder.
5. Cut with a knife thin slices from the dough and stretch them. (smoothly, if they break do not stick them back, bake them as is)
6. Put them next to each other in an oven tray.
7. Cover them and let them to rest again for about 30 min
8.  
9. In the meantime, you can prepare with the rest of the dough small rounded breads like in the photo and let them also rest.
10. You can sprinkle the grissinis and/or the breads with sesame seeds if you want.
11. Bake all at 180 degrees and fan for about 20 min or until they get a nice golden color.
12. Watch them carefully as the grissinis can easily get burnt.
13. Save them in a tin box. Serve them with Milanese salami or prosciutto, hmmmm....  (decorated with flowers offered for my bday :)
