    I made these exactly as the recipe stated, and they were soft and delicious! Just the recipe I was looking for!

    These were very good. I served them with spaghetti & my children decided to just eat the break sticks & didn't eat their spaghetti. Next time, I will use a little less salt in the butter brush mixture. It made the bread sticks a little too salty. However, they were still very good.

    They are totally a nice soft even texture. I usually struggle to make breads but there came together in a snap. I will definitely make them again.

    tasty but it doesn't come out golden brown like it should I recommend using the butter like said in the recipe but 2-3 minutes into cooking brush the breadsticks with a egg wash. Then it will come out golden brown

    This is written extremely odd. Thank goodness I read the commens and listened to what one reviewer wrote "Read the instructions prior to making because you will miss the water". I swear I looked over the recipe several time and nowhere does it mention water in the in the ingredients needed. I do agree the Food Magazine Staff needs to taste their recipes because how can you publish something without even tasting?????

    These are definitely delicious--airy, yeasty and yummy! Somehow my batch made over 20--yay! I did have some issues getting the yeast to foam, and it never did work out quite right (I used Trader Joe's yeast, but it still rose nicely. I also added parmesan to the garlic powder blend, which increased the awesomeness. I would NOT bake these on parchment paper though--mine stuck quite badly. The batch I did on my silicone sheets came off much more easily. I served it with a knock off on Olive Garden's Zuppa Toscana soup... it was a heavenly meal!

    Made these for a Super Bowl party this weekend. Served them with Guy Fieri's Pepperoni Pizza Dip.

    They were a HUGE hit. Both my sisters love the breadsticks at OG & they raved about them. The bigger compliment, from my 15 yr old nephew (a rather picky eater tasted one & says "OMG Aunt Debbie, these are awesome!" Got a similar comment from my 11 yr old neice. My nephew took the rest of them home.

    I second what another reviewer wrote, read through the recipe first, otherwise you'll miss the additional 1 1/4 cups of water.

    These are fantastic! Better than Olive Garden's and very easy to make!

    I used 1 1/2 T kosher salt in the dough (I don't have fine salt - kosher salt takes up more volume than fine salt. Only made a half batch and my husband and I ate them all with dinner (Ina's Corn Chowder soup! Also I didn't hand knead anything, I let the stand mixer knead on medium-high for 3 minutes. I also used a silicon mat for baking. They looked a little small and sad going into the oven, but they puffed up to beautifully sized breadsticks while baking!

    They turned out fantastic. Will definitely make these again!
