Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Combine the seed mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

  2. 2

    Unfold the puff pastry. Place it on a lightly floured surface and roll into a rectangle. The rectangle should be roughly 8x20 inches.

  3. 3

    Brush the pastry evenly with olive oil. Sprinkle the surface evenly with Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle the surface evenly with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the seed mixture. Roll lightly with a rolling pin to press the ingredients into the dough.

  4. 4

    Trim the edges of the pastry and cut into 3/4" inch strips. Transfer the strips to a baking sheet, twisting the strips to create a spiraling effect. Leave 1/2 inch space between the strips.

  5. 5

    Bake for 12 to until golden brown and puffy.

Chef's Notes

Parmesan Puff Pastry Grisini can be made ahead. They are delicious warm, and cold. Reheat in a 350 oven for 2 to 3 minutes.
