Breads Sticks | How to make Bread Sticks
Bread sticks with step by step pictures.
This was in my list to do for a long,at last, i made it. Although the shape is not so perfect i will make it better next time.It calls for garlic powder but I didn't have it in hand,i somehow dried some garlic in oven and powder it,but it didn't work as it became a mass.I have coated the sticks with that only. You can see something sticking on the outer surface of it, it is that what I powdered, but the taste was too good.Try using garlic powder.
