Olive oil sesame breadsticks are made by mixing flour with olive oil, water and seasonings to form a workable dough. Shape it into thin sticks, coat with sesame seeds and bake until crisp; let them cool fully before storing.
Olive oil sesame breadsticks pair well with hummus, labneh, soft cheeses and olive tapenade. They also make a crunchy accompaniment to soup or a simple addition to an appetizer board.
Sesame seeds fall off olive oil sesame breadsticks when they are added to a dry surface or are not pressed into the dough. Lightly brush the shaped sticks with water or olive oil, then press on the seeds before baking.
Store olive oil sesame breadsticks only after they have cooled completely, in an airtight container in a dry place. Trapping steam while they are warm can soften them, and moisture in the air will reduce their crunch.
Keep olive oil sesame breadsticks crisp by cooling them completely before sealing them in an airtight container. If they soften, warm them briefly in a low oven and let them cool on a rack before serving.
Yes, olive oil sesame breadsticks can be frozen once fully cooled. Seal them in a freezer-safe airtight container to protect their texture, then briefly reheat them in the oven after thawing to restore some crispness.
Olive oil sesame breadsticks are a sesame-topped variation of grissini, the slender, crisp Italian breadsticks. Recipes vary: some grissini use other oils or toppings, while sesame and olive oil define this version.
Homemade olive oil sesame breadsticks can stay soft if the dough is too thick or the sticks are taken out before they have dried through. Shape them evenly and thinly, and allow them to cool completely after baking.
Yes, olive oil sesame breadsticks make a crunchy side for soup, especially smooth vegetable or tomato soups. Serve them whole for dipping or break them into pieces just before eating so they do not become soggy.
Yes, olive oil sesame breadsticks can be made without yeast using a simple dough that is rolled or shaped into thin sticks. The result is typically crisp and cracker-like rather than airy, since the dough does not rise.

An olive oil sesame breadstick is made from dough shaped into slender sticks, seasoned with olive oil and sesame, then baked until crisp. It has a dry, crunchy bite, with toasted sesame and the fruity note of olive oil. Breadsticks are associated with Italian grissini, while this sesame-topped version works just as well as a snack at home or alongside a meal. Serve it with dips, soup, cheese or olives, or set it out with drinks.
It is mainly a carbohydrate-rich baked snack; the olive oil contributes fat, with some protein and fibre as well. For a more filling snack, pair a few sticks with hummus or another bean dip, or have them with vegetables.
