Equipment

  • Digital Scales
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Trays

Ingredients
  

  • 150 g Sourdough Starter can be discard or active starter
  • 100 g All Purpose Flour
  • 90 g Pumpkin Puree canned or homemade
  • 70 g Whole Wheat Flour can sub for all purpose
  • 30 g Parmesan Cheese shredded
  • 35 g Butter soft
  • 5 g Salt
  • 20 g Olive Oil for brushing
  • 10 g Sea Salt for sprinkling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
  • Add sourdough discard, flours, pumpkin, butter, salt and parmesan to a mixing bowl and bring the ingredients together to form a shaggy dough.
  • Knead the dough in the bowl until it forms a smooth pliable dough (it is a soft dough and will be slightly sticky, but still very easy to handle). If it's too sticky, add a little more flour.
  • Using a scale, divide the dough into equally weighted pieces. 20g makes a lovely bread stick, around 27cm long.
  • Roll each piece of dough into a long, thin stick. If you want to roll in seeds, do that now.
  • Place the grissini onto a parchment lined baking tray.
  • Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake at 350F/180C for around 25 minutes or until grissini are golden and crisp.
  • Once baked, leave them in the oven with the door ajar to dry thoroughly.

Notes

Notes on Discard - 
This recipe is based on a sourdough discard from a 100% hydration sourdough starter.
 
 
Notes on Mixing Dough - 
This dough is easy to mix in a bowl with a dough scraper or your hands. I find it easiest to use a dough scraper until the dough has just come together. I then use my hands to knead the dough in the bowl until all the ingredients are combined. Don't add additional liquid - just keep kneading til it comes together. It's not an overly sticky dough - it should be soft and pliable.
