Instructions
Using a microwave-safe measuring bowl (or cup), add water and heat to 105° to 115°. Once warm, stir in the sugar and yeast until dissolved. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes or until it is frothy and foamy on top.
Mix the flour and salt together in a large bowl for a stand mixer. Using the paddle attachment (or a large spoon), combine the softened butter into the flour and salt.
Pour the foamy and frothy yeast into the flour mixture. Using a dough hook attachment, blend the ingredients together, and knead the dough for about 10 minutes. You can also knead the dough by hand if need be.
Place the dough in a covered container or put plastic wrap over your mixing bowl. Allow it to sit undisturbed for about 1½ hours or until the double has risen to double its size.
Then measure out 1 to 2-ounce portions of dough. Using your hands or the countertop, roll the dough into 6 to 7 inch long sticks. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place each stick on the sheet. Cover the entire baking sheet with plastic wrap and allow it to sit for another 1½ or until it has once again risen to double its size.
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Bake the breadsticks for 10 to 12 minutes or until a nice golden brown. Remove from oven and immediately brush each breadstick with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt to your preferred taste.
