- ¾ cup warm water (100°F to 110°F)
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp melted butter

- Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture.
- Form the dough: Mix until combined, then knead on a floured surface for about eight minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let it rise: Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for one hour or until doubled in size.
- Shape breadsticks: Punch down the dough gently, divide into ten equal portions, and roll each into long sticks.
