Ingredients

3/4 to 1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Additional butter, melted, optional

Directions

In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup flour, cornmeal, yeast, garlic salt, basil and oregano. In a saucepan, heat milk and butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add egg; beat until smooth. Stir in cheese and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (do not knead). Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
Divide dough into six pieces; roll each piece into a 7-in. rope. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
Bake at 375° for 14-16 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with butter if desired. Yield: 6 breadsticks.
