INSTRUCTIONS
Mix flour, salt and yeast in processor. Add rosemary, thyme, honey and oil.
Gradually blend in enough water to bind dough together (you may not need
the entire 3/4 cup of water). Process until dough forms ball, about 30
seconds longer. Turn dough out onto work surface. Knead until smooth and
elastic, about 2 minutes. Lightly oil large bowl. Add dough; turn to coat
with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then towel. Let dough rise in warm
draft-free area until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch down dough. Divide into 16 equal pieces. Roll each dough piece
between palms and work surface into 12 inch long by 1/2 inch wide rope.
Arrange ropes on 2 heavy large baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart. Let
rise uncovered in warm draft-free area until almost doubled, about 30
minutes.
Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake until breadsticks are very crisp and pale
golden, about 40 minutes. Transfer breadsticks to racks and cool. (Can be
made 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.) Makes 16
