12 Large Eggs, hard-boiled, I like to cook them in my Electric pressure cooker/Insta Pot, with 1 cup of water place in the bottom of the pot 1 layer of eggs you can fit 11 to 12 eggs, if you layer them on top of each other some may crack. Also, use good quality eggs with thicker shells, I’ve had trouble with Wal-mart’s egg shells cracking and the shells are thin. To Cook: Press pressure button and cook eggs 3 to 4 minutes, this will take about 15 to 20 minutes with the pressurizing and depressurizing or cook according to your electric pressure cooker instructions. After pressure cooker/Insta Pot depressurizing cooked eggs. Remove from cooker and place cooked eggs into a bowl of ice water to cool down and then peel.
***Stir lightly together the above in a bowl; Water, sugar and yeast and set aside to get bubbly.
Flour Mixture:
* 2 and 1/2 cups All-purpose Flour, more as needed
*1 cup White Wheat Pastry Flour
*1 heaping tablespoon Malt, Carnation
*2 tablespoons Honey
* 2 tablespoon Sugar
* 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
Note: I sprinkled on Lawry’s Garlic Salt Course Ground with Parsley; this is my favorite garlic salt to use for garlic breadsticks.
Directions:
Mix in a stand mixer on low -speed with hook or hand mix together the flour mixture with yeast mixture.
Knead 10 minutes by hand or 5-8 minutes in Kneading in a Kitchen Aid Mixer with dough hook set on number 2 speed, adding flour if needed until a semi-sticky dough. Set aside and cover with moist sheer cloth/Flour Sack dish towels. Let rise until double in bulk, about 1 hour.
Roll out dough into a rectangular shape, then using a plastic pizza cutter, cut into 1 to 1 and 1/2 inch strips. Just try to make them all uniform lengths around 6 inches or to your desired length.
Melt 1 cube of butter. Pour melted butter onto jelly roll pan/cookie sheet or I used a 1/2 baking sheet to give them more space and crispy edges.
Take dough strips and roll in the butter and twist them and place on pan.
Sprinkle with topping of your choice: Garlic Salt of your choice, Parmesan Cheese or Salad Elegance or Coarse Salt or Sesame Seeds or Cinnamon and Sugar topping, etc…..
Cover with cloth again, the pan of breadsticks and allow to rise another 20 minutes.
Bake in pre-heated oven 400*F. for 18 to 20 minutes.
