Another great recipe from Wild Yeast. This time I decided to try Grissini (or bread sticks). As you will see if you follow the link to the recipe, you separate the dough into three batches. It took this amount before I finally got crisp bread sticks. I added pesto to some, tapenade to others and just rock salt to the last batch. The pesto ones had the nicest flavour (homemade pesto, I always find bought ones too oily).

Those look great! I like the way you twisted the topping to the inside.

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS ...
I would enjoy these warm from the oven. Have you ever had or made italian folding bread Piegata infused with olive oil and rosemary, I had some warm from the oven the other luncthime, I confess to not having made it but it was delicious, I can imagine your breadsticks with the pesto having a very similar texture and taste. Maybe Ollie in the near future will be nibbling on plain versions of these? You asked if I lived near Worthing, yes I do, I am sandwiched between there and Brighton. x
