Bread Sticks Recipe ingredients

• 1 cup of scalded-and-cooled milk
• ¼ to 1 whole cake of compressed yeast
• About 1½ cups of bread flour
• ¼ cup of lukewarm water
• ½ tablespoonful of sugar
• ½ teaspoonful of salt
• 1 tablespoonful of melted butter
• 1 white of egg, beaten light
• Flour for soft dough

To prepare this Bread Sticks Recipe, first make a "sponge" with the first four ingredients and when light add the rest of the materials. Knead until elastic. Cover and let rise until the bulk is doubled. Pull off small pieces of dough and knead into balls; cover on a floured board; when light roll under the hands, on the board, into pencil shapes of a length to fit a bread stick pan. Bake when light. Brush over with slightly beaten white of egg and return to the oven to set the glaze.
