Italian grissini are crispy and aromatic breadsticks from Turin. They are among the most renowned Italian gastronomic products in the world. Breadsticks are said to have been invented in Turin in the first half of the 1600s: they got their name from “gherssa”, a typical Piedmontese bread with an elongated shape similar to a French baguette.
If you bake homemade sourdough bread, and sometimes you don’t know what to make with excess sourdough, this recipe is for you! And also for all those who love healthy sourdough pastries and organize delicious parties!
Grissini can be used as an alternative to bread and as a snack.
They go well with hummus, any kind of pâté, honey, jams, perfect for any wine!
Experiment with additives, fill the sticks with any seeds, herbs, seeds and even cheese, of your taste and imagination!
You can also use different types of flour to make grissini even more healthy!
