Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 3 min.

Mix 20 g sesame seeds, 20 g linseed and 20 g poppy seeds.

Set aside.

Stage 2 - 2 min.

In the bowl of the food processor, pour 140 ml water, 5 g salt and 40 ml olive oil.

Tip in the mix of seeds.

Stage 3 - 2 min.

Add 250 g plain white flour (French Type 65) and 10 g yeast.

Stage 4 - 5 min.

Knead on low speed for 5 minutes.

Note: For the best way to knead, see: A few tips for effective kneading at home.

Stage 5 - 1 hour 30 min.

Gather the dough into a ball, then cover with a damp tea-towel and leave to rise for an hour, or hour and a half.

Stage 6 - 2 min.

At the end of this time, preheat your oven to 428°F (220°C).

Tip the dough onto your work surface.

Stage 7 - 2 min.

Take a small piece of dough (20 g approximately), then roll under your hands until obtaining a long even "sausage" of about 20 cm (8 inches).

Stage 8 - 1 min.

Place this roll on a baking sheet.

Stage 9 - 20 min.

And continue like this with the rest of the dough. The rolls should not touch each other.

Stage 10 - 3 min.

With a brush, glaze each roll with a little oil, and sprinkle salt on top.

Stage 11 - 20 min.

Put in the oven, and bake until the gressini are nicely browned, about 20 minutes.

Stage 12

Leave on a rack to cool a littl before serving still warm.

Remarks

You should cook the gressinis as you like them: if you want them really crusty do not hesitate to bake them until brown. Conversely if you prefer them a still a bit soft, cook until just light brown.
