"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Ingredients:  
1 Package active dry yeast
2 tsp. Sugar
1 Cup Warm Water
1 Cup Warm Milk
1 egg lightly beaten
1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil
1-1/4 tsp. salt divided

Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the milk, egg, oil, tsp salt and 4 Cups Flour; beat on low speed until smooth. Beat
5 minutes longer. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes (dough will be sticky). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Do not punch down. Divide dough into eight pieces. Combine cornmeal and oregano; sprinkle over the work surface.
Roll each piece of dough in cornmeal mixture and shape into a 15 inch long rope. Cut each rope into three pieces. Twist each piece and place on greased baking sheets.
Bake at 400 degrees for 8-12 minutes. Combine garlic powder and remaining salt. Immediately brush twists with melted butter, then sprinkle with garlic powder mixture. Serve with pizza sauce if desired.
