Mix the flour, yeast and salt together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Pour in 260g warm water, weighed for accuracy. Mix with a knife, then knead on medium speed for 12 minutes (see tip if making by hand).
Once the dough is smooth and elastic, knead in the cheese, apricots and herbs on a slow speed or by hand, for 2-3 minutes until evenly incorporated. The dough will become sticky again – if kneading by hand, wet your hands or use a tiny bit of flour.
Wet your hands and shape the dough into a ball. Return to the bowl (or a lightly oiled bowl) and cover. Leave to rise for 2 hours at room temperature or a warm place, or until doubled in size.
Line 2 baking trays with baking parchment. Once risen, knead the dough (using a little flour if needed), for 30 seconds to knock out the air. Divide into 8 equal-sized pieces, then roll them into 30cm sausages. Twist each one a few times so it looks a bit like rope, then transfer to a tray. Cover with a clean damp tea towel. Prove for 40 minutes until slightly puffed (they won’t double in size).
Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Put a roasting tin on the bottom rack and carefully add just-boiled water to create steam. Brush the breadsticks with olive oil, then bake for 25-30 minutes (carefully remove the water tin after 10 minutes). Swap the trays around towards the end, until the breadsticks are dark golden and crisp. Allow to cool on a rack and serve warm.
To make this by hand, knead on a clean work surface, trying not to add any flour if possible, for 15 minutes. These breadsticks will keep in a tin or wrapped in foil for 1-2 days, but are best enjoyed on the day they’re baked.
