You Had Me At Bread Sticks
Olive Garden Called. They Want Their Recipe Back!
I have baked my bread for years. While that may seem like a huge effort, I do have a true confession to make, I have a bread machine that actually does the work. All I do is add the ingredients and push the button.
The part that never gets old for me is the smell of the bread as it is baking.
I have heard that the smell of fresh baked bread elevates a persons sense of well being and I am a huge believer that it is true. But, there is just something about our favorite eating place that trumps what I make at home. It is the breadsticks!
I can’t help start to salivate as soon as they set the linen lined basket on the table with the piping hot and buttery bread while we are waiting for our ordered items.
By the time our dinner is brought out the bread is gone and they ask if we would like them to bring more out. Are you kidding? We will most likely have to ask for a take-home carton for the food because we have already eaten more bread in one sitting than we usually eat in a week.
When I saw this recipe, I thought I would take a chance on it, and boy is my family glad I did. We could have skipped the main course because everyone could not stop talking about the bread. And rightfully so!
