| Olive Bread Sticks |
Kalamata olives were named after the village they come from in the Peloponnese region of Greece. They have a meaty texture and are quite filling. They are by far my family's favourite olive and therefore, we always have them in our home.
This recipe is a little something special that I enjoy making with olives. They sure do bring a pleasant aroma into our home while baking. In fact, the scent of fresh baked bread seems to last longer in our home than the bread sticks themselves. (Everyone waits around the kitchen in order to grab a few sticks while they're coming out of the oven). Warm or cooled off, these bread sticks are delicious!
Here's a tip when kneading dough: If the dough shrinks, cover with a wet tea towel and let rest for another 10 minutes before rolling to required thickness.
