Grissini

Makes 54 to 60 breadsticks

Ingredients
  

  • cups plus 3 tablespoons (754 grams) bread flour
  • 1⅔ cups (400 grams) water, room temperature (70°F/21°C)
  • teaspoons (10 grams) active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon (4 grams) granulated sugar
  • cup plus 1 teaspoon (80 grams) extra-virgin olive oil
  • teaspoons (15 grams) fine sea salt
  • Corn flour or plain cornmeal , for dusting

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine flour and 1⅔ cups (400 grams) water. Let stand for 15 minutes. Add yeast and sugar; knead until combined. Add oil and salt; knead until a soft, elastic, smooth dough forms, 5 to 7 minutes. Cover dough in bowl; let stand at room temperature for at least 10 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Punch down dough; let stand for 10 minutes. On a very lightly corn flour or cornmeal dusted surface, divide dough into small strips (about 0.75 ounces or 21 grams each). Roll into about 15-inch ropes; holding ropes from both ends, shake dough up and down in cornmeal or corn flour to help lengthen. Place 1 inch apart on prepared pans.
  • Bake, one batch at a time, until golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely. Store in a bread bag or airtight container for several days.
