Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Knead oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons caraway seeds into dough in a large bowl until oil is absorbed, then divide dough into 16 pieces. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let stand 30 minutes.

Bake breadsticks, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until just golden, about 25 minutes.
