Ingredients
500 g part-skim mozzarella - use no substitute
1 kg pizza dough
EV olive oil
Garlic powder
¼ tsp SIDS CRAZY SALT
Oregano
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
SIDS TAMARILLO SAUCE for dipping
Directions
Heat the oven to 220°C. Line two baking sheets with oven paper.
Slice the mozzarella into skinny logs. (roughly 6 mm width) Dust the work surface with flour and turn the dough out on top. Slice the ball in half so you're working with 500 g of dough at a time. Set the other half aside.
Roll the dough into a rectangle roughly 20 cm long by 40 cm wide and 6 mm thick. If the dough starts to shrink back, let it rest for 10 minutes and then try rolling again.
Slice the dough into strips 5 cm wide by 20 cm long. Lay a line of mozzarella down the middle of each strip. Fold the strip over on the cheese and pinch it tightly to seal the cheese inside. Gently roll it a few times against the work surface to even it out. Repeat with remaining strips.
Transfer the bread sticks to the baking sheet and let them rise for a half hour. While the first batch is rising, prepare the second batch with the remaining pizza dough.
When ready to bake, brush the bread sticks with olive oil and sprinkle them generously with garlic powder, oregano, parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of SIDS CRAZY SALT. Place the risen bread sticks into the oven and immediately turn down the heat to 175°C. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until puffed and golden. Repeat with the second sheet of bread sticks.
Let the bread sticks cool for five minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a serving dish.
Serve warm with SIDS TAMARILLO SAUCE for dipping. Bread sticks are best eaten right away, but leftovers can be kept refrigerated for three days and re-warmed for 30 seconds in a microwave.
