Baking Cheese Sticks Grissini
In Italy they call bread sticks grissini. They are baked from different kinds of flour with different additives. This type of bread is easy to take along to work, to picnics or give the kids for a snack at school. Crispy grissini with Parmesan boast a superlative taste. Their only drawback is they vanish too fast.
