Bread stick normally served with soup in India also well known as soup stick. Bread stick is also known as grissini or dipping sticks are generally serve with soup or with a dip. This bread sticks are generally in a pencil size but also some times longer then a pencil. Made with bread dough only but in a dry form. This bread sticks are originated from Italy which also served as a appetizer in some regions.
Normally these are made with all purpose flour but I changed it to whole wheat flour and gave a masala flavor. I have added cumin green chilli paste to the dough to go with a less spicy soup like sweet corn vegetable soup.
