Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (112g) shredded low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup (100g) shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions:

  1. Heat the oven. Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and ensure the rack is in the center position for even browning.
  2. Melt the base. Place 1 cup of mozzarella and 1 cup of parmesan in your bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir with a sturdy spatula, and repeat. Stop when it is a single, stretchy mass.
  3. Wait for the cool down. Let the cheese sit for exactly 60 seconds. Note: This prevents the egg from scrambling when you add it.
  4. Add the binders. Crack the room temperature egg into the cheese and sprinkle in the 1 tsp of garlic powder.
  5. Knead the dough. Use your hands or a spatula to work the egg into the cheese. It will look like it is not going to mix at first, but keep going until it is a smooth, pale yellow ball.
  6. Shape the rectangle. Place the dough on a large sheet of parchment paper. Use your hands or a rolling pin to flatten it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  7. Score the strips. Use a pizza cutter to score the dough into 8 to 10 strips, but do not pull them apart yet. Leaving them close together prevents the edges from burning too fast.
  8. Bake to mahogany. Slide the parchment onto your baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the surface is deep brown and the kitchen smells like a pizzeria.
  9. Cool for stability. Let the breadsticks rest on the pan for 5 minutes. This is when they transition from soft cheese to crispy breadsticks.
