Mix lukewarm water with yeast and let it sit for about 10 minutes until it starts to foam.
You can knead the dough with an electric mixer or by hand.
Mix flour with a pinch of salt and add olive oil.
Slowly add the yeast mixture while continuing to knead until you have a smooth dough ball.
Brush the dough ball with a thin layer of olive oil and cover the bowl with a clean tea towel. Let the dough rise for 45 minutes.
Brush a large baking sheet with a thin layer of olive oil and preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Divide the dough into small pieces and roll each piece out thin and long. Make sure they are as even as possible, as thicker parts will not be as crispy.
Place all the grissini on the baking sheet, making sure they do not touch each other.
Bake the grissini until they are golden brown and crispy in about 15 minutes. The exact baking time depends on the oven and the thickness of the grissini.
Let the grissini cool before serving, as they will become crispier. Enjoy!
