BREADSTICKS WITH SOURDOUGH (YEAST OPTION TOO)
Just breadsticks with a very good flavor. My wife likes 'em unglazed or with garlic butter topping - either way. I enjoy breads made with both buttermilk and sourdough. No sourdough? No problem. A few pinches of yeast in a mixture of flour and water and 6 hours later you have a flavorful base to the recipe. This dough is designed to be a little stiff. Feel free to add a couple of additional tablespoons of buttermilk if desired.
