Parmesan Breadsticks

These snacks are sooo yummy, they will disappear in minutes. This recipe doesn’t have milk or water in it, just melted butter and egg. We all love them so much, I always have to make a double batch. You should really try making them.

Recipe:

1. All purpose flour – about 3 1/2 cups

2. Salt – 1 tsp

3. Yeast – 2 tsp

4. Baking powder – 1/2 tsp

5. Eggs – 1 egg

6. Plain yogurt – 150 gr

7. Butter – 1 stick( 113 gr), melted

8. Feta – 150 gr

9. Parmesan cheese – to your liking

Egg wash -1 egg + tbsp milk for spreading on top

Mix all ingredients and make a soft dough, oil the bowl and the dough lightly and cover, let it rise for about an hour. Then on a floured surface roll the dough to 1/4″. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut strips with a pizza cutter. Whisk the egg with the milk and set aside. Twist the strips as much as you can, when done spread the egg wash and sprinkle Parmesan cheese. When the oven is ready bake for 20-25min.

*The dough won’t rise a lot.

* I’ve made these also without leaving the dough to rise and they’ve turned out just as good.

Maple Yogurt

Maple yogurt anyone? Here’s a recipe you’ll love, because you made it and because it really is better than the yogurt from the store and so easy to make.


Recipe:
For a 16 oz jar

  • Milk- 16oz
  • Yogurt – 1tbs, with live cultures
  • Maple syrup – 2tbs

In a 16 oz jar put the yogurt and maple syrup and stir really well, set aside. Bring milk to a boil. When milk is 210°-240°F remove from stovetop and let it cool to 110°-130°F. When it has cooled down to the right temperature pour in the jar stir really well and close the jar, put it in a pot lined with towels, wrap it really good and cover with a lid, put it in the microwave and leave overnight. The next morning you should have a really creamy yogurt, transfer for a few hours in the fridge.

Things to remember:

*Yogurt needs to be in a warm place for a long time in order to turn.

*It needs to cool down slowly, so make sure it’s wrapped really good with towels or whatever you have, and placed in a warp spot.
