Homemade grissini

[AlainV]

To make homemade grissini tastier, I tried to roll them in sesame seeds while shapping and before final 30 minutes rest on the baking sheet.

However, most of the seeds didn't stick to grissini after baking.

Any tip to suggest to resolve this problem ?

Spray them with water and then toss them in a bowl of seeds.

Make an egg-white wash (just egg whites and water). Brush them with the wash and sprinkle with the seeds either before or after the rest.

I have the most sucess brushing them with egg wash and sprinkling the seeds on as soon as I've shaped them. They only take a couple minutes to proof. When I wait until their proofed the pressure of the brush deflates some of my rise unevenly.

Last week I used a wagner power sprayer to egg wash for the first time in my life-I sure do like that tool/toy!

Put the seeds in the dough when you make it.

Thank you for the tips. I will now experiment.

If you thin the egg wash with a bit of water or milk and strain well, you can also use a hand trigger spray bottle for small or occasional jobs. Use a brand new bottle and never use it for anything else, of course.
