Caraway And Parmesan Grissini Recipes

Steps:

• Dust 1/2 pound pizza dough with flour; flatten into a rectangle. Roll out with a pasta machine on the widest setting into a 5-by-18-inch sheet, 1/8 inch thick. Halve the sheet crosswise, dust with more flour and cut each half into fettuccine-size strips with the pasta machine. Arrange the strips 1/2 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Cover with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until puffed, 60 to 90 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Bake at 350 degrees F, switching the pans halfway through, until crisp, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• To a large saucepan, combine the Parmesan rinds, carrots, celery, garlic, onions, oregano, thyme, bay leaf and salt. Add 8 cups water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer the broth for 1 hour 15 minutes, adjusting the heat to maintain a simmer and stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Strain into a clean saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook for 2 minutes less than the package instructions, about 4 minutes. Drain well, then add the tortellini to the broth to finish cooking. Stir in the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• In large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add oil, salt and 2 1/2 cups of the flour; mix until soft dough forms. Place dough on lightly floured work surface; knead in enough remaining 1/2 cup flour until dough is no longer sticky.
• Grease large bowl with oil or shortening. Place dough in bowl, turning dough to grease all sides. Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap; let rise in warm place about 2 hours or until dough has doubled in size. Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.
• Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. Place dough on lightly floured work surface; lightly sprinkle top of dough with flour. Roll into 18x12-inch rectangle. Cut crosswise into 1/3-inch-wide strips. Place strips on cookie sheets. Cover loosely; let rise in warm place 30 minutes or until puffed.
• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray tops of breadsticks with cooking spray; sprinkle with cheese.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks; cool before serving.
