Sesame Breadsticks Recipes

SESAME ONION BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until tender. Stir in paprika; cool completely. , On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 16x14-in. rectangle. Spread onion mixture down 1 half of the rectangle. Fold dough lengthwise in half over onion mixture, forming a 16x7-in. rectangle; seal edges., Cut dough lengthwise into thirty-two 1/2-in.-thick strips. Twist each strip 2 or 3 times. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 45 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°., Brush breadsticks with beaten egg; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake 13-16 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.

SOFT SESAME BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Gradually add milk and stir to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface, knead gently 3-4 times. Roll into a 10x5x1/2-in. rectangle; cut into 12 breadsticks. , Place butter in a 13x9-in. baking pan. Place breadsticks in butter and turn to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake until golden brown, 14-18 minutes. Serve warm.

SESAME SEED BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Spread sesame seeds on wax paper.
• In a mixing bowl combine flour(s), yeast, salt & sugar.
• Add oil & enough water to make a soft dough. Knead for one minute with a KitchenAid mixer or about 50 times by hand on a barely floured surface. DO NOT ADD TOO MUCH FLOUR WHEN KNEADING.
• On an unfloured surface, roll into 12 8-inch sticks & coat each stick with sesame seeds. If seeds don't stick, rub a little oil on your hands when rolling.
• Place on baking sheet & let rise in a warm place until double (45 min - 1 hour)
• Preheat oven to 325° F and bake for 25 minutes.
• Turn the breadsticks over and bake another 20-25 minutes.
• Test the fattest breadstick and if it's still soft in the middle, turn oven off and prop open the door. Let the oven cool down for about 20 minutes. Return baking sheet to the oven with the door open a few inches for up to an hour until breadsticks are totally dry throughout.
• Cool completely. Store in a sealed container.

SESAME BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Stir together water, yeast, and sugar in a medium bowl, and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, start over with new yeast.) Add oil, salt, and 1 cup flour and stir until a dough forms (it should be soft but not sticky), adding more flour a little at a time, if necessary.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, adding just enough flour to surface to keep dough from sticking, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let dough rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F with racks in upper and lower thirds. Oil 2 large baking sheets.
• Punch down dough, then roll out on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch square. Lightly brush dough with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds, pressing to help them adhere. Cut dough into very thin strips (about 1/4-inch wide) with a pizza wheel or sharp knife.
• Divide strips between baking sheets, scattering them loosely in a free-form pattern (strips may overlap). Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through, until crisp and golden-brown in spots, 10 to 15 minutes (if breadsticks begin to get too dark in spots, cover area with foil.) Transfer to racks to cool, about 10 minutes.
• Do Ahead
• Breadsticks can be made up to 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature. Reheat if desired before serving.

SESAME BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Divide dough into 4 portions. Place on a flour-dusted work surface; cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
• Stretch and roll each piece into an 8-inch-long rope. Place on the prepared baking sheet and brush with sesame oil. Sprinkle each breadstick with 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds and a pinch of flaky salt; gently press to adhere. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes.

BACON WRAPPED SESAME BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Combine cheese and garlic salt/powder (other preferred seasonings).
• Wrap bacon slices in a spiral around each breadstick.
• Place breadsticks on greased or parchment lined pan.
• Cook for 15 minutes or until bacon is browned just a bit.
• Remove and carefully roll the hot breadsticks in cheese mixture.
• Let cool and enjoy!

SEMOLINA AND SESAME GRISSINI (BREADSTICKS)

Steps:

• Place 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl with the yeast and a pinch of sugar. Stir to dissolve and let stand to proof, 5-7 minutes. If it is not foamy by then, the yeast is dead; get new yeast and start again.
• Place semolina and all-purpose flours in work bowl of a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment. Add the salt, and 2 tbsp of sesame seeds. Mix briefly to combine.
• Make a well in the pile of flour and add the proofed yeast, the remaining water, and the olive oil. Start the mixer on low speed until everything comes together and starts to get smooth, about 2 minutes. Increase to medium and knead another 2-3 minutes, until it begins to look velvety and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead by hand until smooth and elastic (about 30 turns, about 1 minute). Grease a clean mixing bowl with olive oil and place the dough into it, turning the dough over to coat both sides.
• Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm, dark spot until it triples in volume, about 2 1/2 hours. (Alternatively, place dough in an oiled, airtight plastic container at least twice the size of the dough mass and refrigerate overnight. Bring to room temperature before proceeding).
• Preheat oven to 400°F Coat 2 baking sheets each with 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp olive oil.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured board. Cut dough in 6 equal pieces. Cover the unused pieces with a damp kitchen towel.
• Cut each piece into 4 or 5 equal pieces, each about the size of a medium walnut (3/4 to 1 ounce each). Using both hands, roll each piece against the board until it forms a 12 to 14 inch rope. Do not flour the board; the stickiness helps the dough stretch out.
• Place the rope on the baking sheet, rolling it to coat with oil. Spaced 1/2 inch apart, each sheet should hold 10 to 12 breadsticks.
• When all the breadsticks are made, coat with sesame seeds: pour the seeds into a long narrow pile, as long as the bread sticks and twice as wide. Starting with the first breadstick (which will be most relaxed and easiest to work with), roll each breadstick in the sesame seeds, coating well, then return it to the sheet pan. Sprinkle each with a bit of kosher salt and let rest 10 minutes.
• Bake 14-20 minutes. Halfway through, turn each sheet pan 180° in the oven, and swap racks, to ensure even browning. They are done when they are an even light golden brown (the ends may be a little darker). Cool completely on the baking sheets. Store in an airtight container up to 2 weeks.

SESAME CRUNCH STICKS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, pulse flour, baking powder, and salt until combined. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer to a medium bowl; stir in buttermilk and 1 cup sesame seeds until mixture forms a dough. Divide into quarters; wrap in plastic. Chill 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, sugar, and soy sauce. Transfer one piece of dough to a lightly floured work surface; roll out into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Use a sharp knife or pizza wheel to cut into strips, about 3/8 inch wide and 10 inches long. Brush strips with egg mixture; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sesame seeds.
• Arrange strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until just golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
