Nice to know:
Grissini’s are fragrant, crispy and perfect to nibble! According to ancient stories the first grissini already have been eaten in the 14th century in Italy. Another story tells that grissini were invented by a baker from Lanzo Torinese (northern Italy) in 1679.
In Turin grissini are still produced in the artisanal way. They are not only much crispier, but also much longer. The better the quality of the dough and the kneading of it, the better the dough can be stretched and how longer the grissini will be. So do not be surprised if you find more than 25 inch long grissini on your plate in Turin!
Grissini is served as a starter in restaurants, but they can also be combined with ingredients like proscuitto and served as hors d' oeuvre.
Tasty nibble!
