Photo: Eva Taylor

Ingredients

300 grams (about 2 cups) all purpose flour

150 grams (½ cup) margarine/sweet butter

1 tablespoon fast rising yeast (bread machine yeast works)

Sour cream as necessary for kneeding (I generally need about 2 tbsp)

100 grams (1 cup) shredded cheese (sharp cheddar works well, freshly grated Salt and Pepper to taste

20 grams (½ cup) shredded cheese

1 egg yolk

Preparation

Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water + 1 tsp sugar

In a pastry blender or food processor with plastic blades blend flour, margarine, yeast, cheese and salt and pepper until a smooth ball forms, adding sour cream as necessary.

Let rest in a warm dark place for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375F

On a piece of parchment paper, roll out dough to about 1/2 cm (~1/4 inch) thickness.

Cut into 7-10 cm (3-4″) x 2 cm (1/2 inch) sticks.

Lightly beat the egg yolk and brush tops of sticks.

Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Let rest 10 minutes.

Slide cheese sticks on parchment paper onto a cookie sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is golden brown.

Re-cut sticks, if necessary, while still warm. Allow to cool.

Enjoy!

About

Hungarian Cheese Sticks (Sajtos Rud) - this recipe came from my Aunt Agi in Budapest. I have done my best to convert to imperial measures, but to be sure, you should use the metric. Added note, I have successfully made these several times using imperial measures…so go for it!
Check it out on my blog .
