10 These bread sticks are great served with a garlicky marinara dipping sauce.


INGREDIENTS:
1-3/4 to 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 cup sesame seeds one 1/4-ounce package active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons parsley flakes 1 tablespoon dried crushed basil 3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup shredded mozarella 1/2 cup grated Parmesan



1 Combine 1-1/2 cups of the flour, the sesame seeds, yeast, and salt in a large bowl; mix well.
2 Heat 1 cup water, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and the honey in a small saucepan to 120 F. Add the olive oil mixture to the dry ingredients and beat until just moistened. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to form a soft dough.
3 Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
4 Grease a 15x10-inch baking pan. Roll the dough into a rectangle. Transfer to the baking pan. Press the dough to the edges of the pan. Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle the parsley, basil, and garlic over the dough. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 40 minutes.
5 Preheat the oven to 400 F. Bake for 10 minutes. Sprinkle the dough with the cheeses. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes longer to melt the cheeses. Cut into 20 strips.
