Diets This recipe is great for people who like something salty instead of the overload of sweet.
1/2 kilogram flour
1 teaspoon Gefen Dry Yeast
1 package margarine (100 grams) (use soy-free, if needed)
3 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup lukewarm water
1 egg, beaten with a pinch of salt
150 grams sesame seeds
2 tablespoons nigella (katzach) seeds
In a mixer bowl, using a dough hook, mix the flour with the yeast. Add margarine, oil and water and work into a soft dough.
Roll out the dough on a flat surface. Use a pizza wheel to cut out rectangles half a centimeter wide and 15 centimeters long (.2- x 6-inches). You can vary the length of the sticks, depending on what kind of dish you are planning to serve them in. Try to cut as straight as possible for best results.
In a small bowl, beat an egg with a bit of salt and brush the entire sheet of dough with an even layer of egg wash. Generously sprinkle sesame and katzach seeds over the dough. Carefully transfer the dough to a lined baking sheet and bake at 160 degrees Celsius (320 degrees Fahrenheit) in preheated oven for twenty minutes or until sticks are golden.
Yield: 80 sticks
