Grissini

replace me

A traditional Italian breadstick that is made from dough that is elastic in texture allowing for ease in shaping the dough into a long and very thin stick. The breadstick is coated with extra virgin olive oil and then baked until crisp. Grissini breadsticks are often rolled in sesame seeds before baking and there are a number of variations that include ingredients that add flavor such as herbs, tomatoes, or parmesan cheese. Grissini is often served with appetizers, soups, stews, or simply as a snack or appetizer.
