Grissini

These Italian Bread Sticks are richer than the preceding Sesame Bread Sticks, due to the higher percentage of olive oil in the dough and the inclusion of butter. Adding roasted garlic or grated Parmesan cheese to the dough (as detailed below) are two ways they can be varied. Other variations for this versatile dough are the addition of ground black pepper, sesame seeds, or a mixture of sesame, poppy, and fennel seeds.
