Recipe For Making Bread Sticks

1 cup of scalded milk. 1/2 teaspoonful of salt. 1 cake of compressed yeast. White of an egg. 1/4 cup of lukewarm water. 2 tablespoonfuls of butter. 1 tablespoonful of sugar. Flour.

Make a sponge of the milk, yeast and flour; when light add the other ingredients, the white of egg beaten until light; when ready to shape, form into small balls, then roll (without flour) on the board with the hands, until strips, uniform in size and in shape of a thick lead pencil, are formed. Set to rise in a pan designed for the purpose, leaving them full or half length, as desired. Before rolling, wait until the balls (closely covered) are very light.

Braids

Roll the sticks to the desired length, then braid them in three or four strands, having the braids wider in the centre than at the ends.
