WHOLE-WHEAT BREADSTICKS WITH SESAME

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, 1/4 cup of the sesame seeds 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-by-4-inch rectangle. Make sure there is enough flour or oil underneath the dough so 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 of the interior space. Brush sheet pans with olive oil. Cut the dough crosswise into four equal pieces. Brush each piece with beaten egg white, then roll each piece in 1 tablespoon of the remaining sesame seeds, until coated. Cut each piece crosswise into six equal pieces. Roll each between the board and your hands as if you were making 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.

Brush with sesame oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds. Fold in all four sides of the circle to meet in the middle, forming a rectangle. Roll the dough again to 8 inches in diameter, then brush with sesame oil, fold in the sides again and roll to 8 inches. Brush the surface with additional sesame oil and transfer dough to a large greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Repeat with the remaining dough balls. (You may need to use several baking sheets, or bake in batches, keeping unrolled dough loosely covered with plastic wrap or a dish towel until ready to use.)
• Bake until golden and slightly puffed, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly.
