Bread Sticks

Total Calories: 465

Ingredients

2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons sugar or honey
2 tablespoons yeast
2 cups hot water
2 tablespoons salt
2 cups bread flour
6-9 cups bread flour
1/4 cup butter

Directions:

Mix together water, honey and yeast. Let it set aside long enough to see the yeast foam. In a mixing bowl, mix together water, salt and 2 cups of bread flour. Add yeast mixture to flour mixture and mix well. Add bread flour one cup at a time mixing well until the dough starts to pull away from the side of the bowl (or until your arm is too tired to continue stirring). This could be about 6-9 cups of flour depending on the weather, the moon, your attitude, etc. Don't add too much or it will be too dry. Knead till dough is smooth. Roll out to a thin dough with a wooden rolling pin. Transfer by hand to a greased baking sheet pan and press it with your fingers until it fills the entire sheet. Spread melted butter on top (about 1/4 cup). Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough in half length-wise, then cut about 9 times across the width to give you about 20 bread sticks. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings. For example: 1/4 c. parm. cheese, 1 T. parsley or sweet basil flakes, salad supreme or veggie supreme, garlic salt. Let rise till double in size. Bake at 375 for 15 min.
