GRISSINI Makes 24 grissini
Grissini is the Italian word for breadsticks. They are shaped by hand and then baked
at a high temperature in the oven. They look very different than mass-market, machine-
extruded breadsticks, which all look exactly alike; these are charmingly knobby and ir-
regular. Bake until they are crisp. Otherwise, if they are soft like bread, they will bend
and break when you stand them in a crock to serve. If you are unsure about making
them freeform, you can use a breadstick tray, which is made up of a series of very thin
cradles. Serve these breadsticks in an appetizer buffet, plain or with butter, or wrapped
with smoked turkey or prosciutto. They are also wonderful with soup.
