• In a bowl of your stand mixer with hook attachment or a wide bowl add in the Flours, Bloomed yeast mixture and give it a quick mix.
• Now add the salt, sesame seeds, dry herbs (crush it slightly between your hands) and mix again.
• Now slowly add the milk and knead the dough.
• Do not add all the milk at one go, as different flours have different absorption capacity. Add it slowly.
• Once you get the dough all combined , knead the dough for 2-3 minutes in a stand mixer or 5-6 minutes with hand.
• Try to form a rough ball shape. Add oil slowly to the dough.
• Once you are able to make an elastic dough, let the dough rest until it doubles in size. (Around 1-1.5 hours)
• Once the dough is double in size, knead it for a min.
• Divide the dough into 2 equal size portions.
• Roll each dough into a large rectangle.
• Cut into 1-1.5 cm strips and roll each strip.
• Place this in a prepared baking sheet. Keep some space in between as they will rise during baking.
• Preheat the oven to 200 Deg C / 390 Deg F.
• Lightly brush the breadsticks with milk. (This is optional, but it gives a nice golden colour)
• Bake the breadsticks for 20-30 minutes in a preheated oven until golden brown. (I like to turn the breadsticks in between so that they are golden overall, this is an optional step.)
• Once done let them cool completely on the baking tray itself. Once cooled, store it in an airtight container.

WHOLE WHEAT BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast in the water in a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer. Stir in the honey, agave nectar, malt extract or rice syrup. Let stand for five minutes. Stir in the olive oil.
• Combine the whole-wheat flour, 1 cup of the unbleached all-purpose flour and the salt. Add to the liquid mixture. If kneading by hand, stir until you can turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead for 10 minutes, adding flour as necessary to keep the dough from sticking to your hands and worktop. If using an electric mixer, mix at medium speed for 8 to 10 minutes. Add flour as necessary so that the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl. The dough should be elastic and just slightly sticky.
• Lightly flour your work surface or brush with olive oil. Using your hands or a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 14-by4-inch rectangle. Make sure there is enough flour or oil underneath the dough that it doesn't stick to the work surface. Brush the top with oil. Cover with plastic wrap, then with a damp kitchen towel. Allow to rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until nearly doubled. (If you need the workspace, lightly oil the underside of a sheet pan and place the dough on top.)
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees with the racks positioned in the middle and upper thirds. Brush sheet pans with olive oil. Cut the dough crosswise into four equal pieces. One at a time, cut each piece crosswise into six equal pieces. Roll each piece between the board and your hands, as if you were making it into a rope, until it is as long as the baking sheet. For a tighter strip, twist the strands from one end to the other. Place 1 inch apart on the baking sheets until you've filled two baking sheets. Continue to shape the remaining breadsticks while the first batch is baking.
• Place in the oven, and bake 15 minutes. Switch the pans top to bottom and front to back, and bake another 10 minutes until the breadsticks are nicely browned (they will be darker on the bottom). Remove from the heat, and cool on a rack. Shape and bake any remaining dough as instructed.

The dough should be elastic and spring back when you press gently with a finger.
• Oil a loaf pan with some of the remaining olive oil. Shape the dough into a loaf, and place in the pan with the seam side facing upward. Lightly brush the top with oil, then turn the loaf so that the seam side is down. Brush lightly again with olive oil. Spray or brush a piece of plastic wrap with oil, and place it, oiled side down, lightly over the pan. Cover with a damp kitchen towel, and place in a warm spot to rise until the dough reaches the edges of the pan, about one hour and 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 F with a rack positioned in the middle.
