The perfect pairing for cheese, cured meats and olives – grissini is a guaranteed hit for al fresco get togethers. Originating in Turin in Italy, around the 17th century, they were initially created as a way to provide a long, easily-eaten bread that wouldn’t go stale quickly. But we don’t think you’ll need to worry about these hanging around for too long – they are deliciously moreish.

We’ve used some sourdough starter in this recipe but they are just as good with instant yeast and refreshingly simple to make. Enjoy them with our wild garlic pesto and smoked hummus, or an antipasti platter.

Bellissimo!
