These breadsticks pair perfectly with just about any Italian dish you can imagine! They are also great alongside a bowl of soup or with a dinner salad.

Basting Butter
Instructions
Heat milk (1 ½ cups) and butter (5 Tbsp) to 110 °F degrees.
To the bowl of a stand mixer, add 4 1/2 cups flour, yeast (2 Tbsp), sugar (⅓ cup), salt (1 tsp), egg (1), and the milk/butter mixture.
Using the dough hook, mix on low speed for four minutes.
If after 4 minutes the dough is not clearing the sides of the bowl, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, up to half a cup more.
Turn the mixer to medium speed for six minutes. The dough should be smooth and elastic.
Dump the dough onto a lightly greased counter and gently shape the dough into a ball by folding the covers toward the middle until a sphere is formed. Place in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Dump the risen dough onto the counter and divide dough into 18 pieces. Gently roll each piece to form a small rope, about 5 inches long.
Place on a greased baking sheet and let rise, covered, for 30 minutes.
While the breadsticks are rising, preheat the oven to 350 °F degrees.
