Day Three Hundred Fifty One: Tied Up In Knots

While many kids will only eat the toppings from a pizza, my three-year old daughter only likes the crust.  She will forgo all the greasy goodness of the cheesy toppings for the yeasty castoffs any day.  For her I made Martha's Garlic Knots.  They are just like that really fattening (and amazingly yummy) bread sticks you buy at a pizzeria...only you made it so it's better.

You can make your own dough, or use ready-made pizza dough from the freezer section. Roll it out and then cut it into narrow strips. 





(This is where the photo of the narrow strips of dough should be.  It's currently missing.)





Then tie the narrow strips into little knots (kids LOVE this part) and throw on a baking sheet.

Once they are golden brown, toss them with a mixture of garlic and olive oil.

Fresh from the oven, these are de-vine and probably illegal in California and New York.
