Makes: 12

In a large mixer bowl, sprinkle yeast over the 1/4 cup water. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Stir in salad oil, sugar, salt, milk and 2 cups flour. Beat on medium speed for 5 minutes or until , dough pulls from sides of bowl in stretchy strands.

Stir in more flour (about 1 cup) to form a stiff dough. Turn onto a lightly floured board. Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth.

Turn dough over in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Turn dough out onto board. Knead to expel trapped air. Cut into 12 equal pieces. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.

Roll each piece out into a log, about 12 inches long. Set breadsticks 1 inch apart on a greased baking sheet. Brush tops lightly with oil. Sprinkle with caraway seeds. Let rise in a warm place for 20 minutes or until puffy.

Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden.

Cool on pan for 2 minutes before serving.
