Recipe FAQs
What if my dough doesn’t rise?
If your dough doesn’t rise, your yeast might be expired or the water could have been too hot. Ensure your yeast is fresh and water is between 100-110°F.
Can I make this dough without a stand mixer?
Yes, you can knead by hand. It will take a bit longer, about 15-20 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
How do I store the breadsticks?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze them for longer storage. Reheat in the oven at 425°F for 4-5 minutes to refresh.
