BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar and yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
• Beat flour, oil, egg, salt, remaining sugar, and remaining warm water into yeast mixture until smooth, adding more flour if needed to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured work surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to cover completely with oil. Cover bowl with a damp towel and place in a warm area until dough is doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Punch dough down and turn onto a floured work surface. Divide dough into 18 pieces and shape each into a 6-inch rope. Arrange dough pieces on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart; cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about 25 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove cover from dough.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Whisk butter and garlic salt together in a bowl; brush over each breadstick. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each.

ALMOST-FAMOUS BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Make the dough: Place 1/4 cup warm water in the bowl of a mixer; sprinkle in the yeast and set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add the flour, butter, sugar, fine salt and 1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons warm water; mix with the paddle attachment until a slightly sticky dough forms, 5 minutes.
• Knead the dough by hand on a floured surface until very smooth and soft, 3 minutes. Roll into a 2-foot-long log; cut into 16 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. Knead each piece slightly and shape into a 7-inch-long breadstick; arrange 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with a cloth; let rise in a warm spot until almost doubled, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Make the topping: Brush the breadsticks with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Bake until lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt with the garlic powder and oregano. Brush the warm breadsticks with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle with the flavored salt.

SEEDED BREADSTICKS

Steps:

• Stir together milk, oil, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl until blended. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in both flours, except additional all-purpose flour, and salt.
• Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes, adding just enough additional flour to keep dough from sticking.
• Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch down dough and turn out onto work surface. Cut dough into 16 equal pieces and roll each into a 15- to 16-inch rope. Arrange ropes 1 inch apart on 2 greased baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal and let stand, uncovered, 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Brush breadsticks with egg white and sprinkle with seeds and kosher salt, pressing to adhere.
• Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to racks to cool.
