Directions
  • First add yeast and malt to the lukewarm water and dissolve. Pour the flour and salt into the stand mixer and knead with the dough hook on the lowest setting.
  • Gradually add the yeast water. Then add the oil as well. Let the dough knead for at least 7 minutes. The longer, the better.
  • Then transfer the dough to a work surface sprinkled with durum wheat semolina and roll out into an oblong rectangle. Now brush the surface with a little olive oil and sprinkle with durum wheat semolina.
  • Now let the dough rest for about 1 hour until it has doubled in volume.
  • After resting, cut strips about 0.4in (1cm) wide from the short side of the dough with a sharp large knife. Then carefully pull the strips to the desired length and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Make sure that there is enough space between the grissini.
  • Now place the baking sheet in the oven for approx. 20 minutes at 400°F (200°C) top/bottom heat. As soon as the sticks are lightly browned, remove them and let them cool.
    Buon appetito!

Tip

Instead of the pizza flour you can also use normal wheat flour!
