Step 1
Mix flour, yeast, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Add warm water and 1 tbsp olive oil, then stir until shaggy dough forms.
Step 2
Knead by hand for 3 minutes until smooth and slightly elastic. The dough should feel tacky but hold together.
Step 3
Divide dough into 8–10 pieces. Roll each into a thin rope about 8 inches long and pencil-thin on a sheet pan.
Step 4
Brush breadsticks with remaining olive oil. Strip rosemary leaves over them, then sprinkle generously with coarse sea salt.
Step 5
Bake at 425°F for 12–14 minutes until deep golden and crispy throughout. They should shatter when broken.
Step 6
Cool on the pan for 1 minute, then transfer to a board. Serve warm or at room temperature.
