I never thought of having a food processor and the fancy
"Kitchen Aid" till now. They are the bare essential in American kitchen, at
least the food processor. Kneading the bread by hand is almost out of fashion. But, I treasure two appliances: Mixer (a robust
Indian version of blender) and grinder. I cannot imagine my cooking even a
single day without the mixer. In twelve years, it is my third mixer, with little attention it last for ever. I even stocked up for back up. But my
ultra-grinder is used to maximum weekly once for grinding idli/dosa or for
spongy medu vadas. This appliance was sold with two attachments which I never
even though to use. One is the coconut scrapper, the attachment scares me with
lots of sharp teeth. Pretty sure, the blade is dangerous to handle, got hurt
whenever I removed the attachment. I rarely use it !

Dough attachment for grinder |
Pizza is my son's favorite dine-out. He orders pizza and the breadsticks. Well, he eats the pizza and keep the breadsticks for dinner and mostly for breakfast too. Sure even an Italian will not eat breadsticks for breakfast!
I pulled the recipe from here. The original recipe is for
breadmachine. Well I don't own either. I modified to my convenience. I halved
the recipe well I don't want the whole family eats breadsticks for next day
morning. To my surprise, they all got vanished within few minutes. It taste
great hot from the oven, I personally didn't like to reheat!

Oil a bowl, give a shape and drop the dough and turn oil side up. Clingwrap and let it rise.
Once the dough is doubled.
Flour the work surface, punch down the air and roll the dough into a rectangle shape to 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch thick.
With a pizza cutter, cut the dough into strips.
Place on greased tray, place the strips (leave space in between), don't worry about the shape, cover and let it rise until doubled.
Prepare the topping , mix all together.

Nice header Cham! And the breadsticks look delicious..
Looks yumm Cham, have to try it once as it is simple to make.
What a coincidence. My mom just reminded me of the dough hook that I bought to make bread. I have a stand mixer, but I want to try with my ultra grind too. Bread looks yummy. Enjoy ur weekend.
Sure looks like pizza hut ones...too good and tempting
will try this some weekend
My word..now who would have thought our good ol' grinder could knead pizza dough so beautifully!!I need a Grinder ASAP and not a KA,hehe.Breadsticks look delicious,no wonder they are breakfast material too..yum!!
Cham..super like post. Love this breadsticks..looks yummmmmmm!!!
Header looks awesome..I was stuck staring at the header that I forgot abt the post....
Delicious bread sticks and the sauce. Good idea to use the grinder attachment.
wow this looks so yum n delicious ...
Those bread sticks are truly irresistible..I dont bother to grab some..WE never Need KA:)..I use my grinder for kneading my roti doughs often:)..
Oh I envy u! U have a heavy duty grinder ( plus dough blade)! I wish I had one. What brand is it? did u buy it here?
The breadsticks look great, I could do with a couple and the dipping sauce, Yum!
Absolutely delicious breadsticks with the sauce.
Grinder is Ultra-grinder (1.25L) is the smallest -110V- the price tag is same in India (checked last here) and US. So better buying online in US if u want the 110V- price should be $225.

Yumm breadstick. I do not a have a fancy mixer grinder :(, no dough hook. I do not even use the bulky food processor any more. Only my Magic Bullet is extensively used
I too treasure my ultra grind and this coconut scrapper and atta kneader is useful too! Coconut scrapper is bit dangerous as u said and atta kneader I always use it,very handy it is!
I luking the new founder for dough making...The kneading process reallly becomes simple and easy...Great Way of making doughs ,cham..
I klove these breadsticks and hey i like kneading the dough with my hands...the old fashioned way. It is therapeutic.
The dipping sauce looks bright n yummy , although i like a cheesy dip for the bread sticks:)
oh!it looks so soft n yummy..will try soon.
Better than Pizza hut! I have bookmarked the recipe :)
US Masala
I too like the header cham. The breadsticks - pizza hut should buy you out :)
I love my mixer. But now I sure am starting to eye these food processors. Your breadsticks have come out so good! I can smell the garlic all the way here.. :)
Thats a very flavorful bread stick recipe, with the herbs in it, Cham!
They look so delicious Cham, my daughter would just love these have to try it. Like the new look of your blog.
wow...looks tempting n mouthwatering...
Loved your new header and the breadsticks look just perfect !
that looks so yumm!!!
Wow.. was looking for bread stick and specially the sauce they serve in pizza hut.. looks so yummy Cham.. thank you for the recipe..
I too have a grinder but not the kneader attachement,only the coconut scraper. But I love the scraper,thgh the teeth has slowly started coming out. Mine is a bit older version of Ultra.With the frozen coconut available there,I suppose the scrapper will not be of much use to you there.
I must try this Cham. Perfect snack. I missed two recipe here thanks to fever,exams etc. Its time to catch up :)
