In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.

Punch the dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half.
Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; cut each circle into 12 wedges.
Roll up wedges from the wide end and place pointed end down 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends to form crescents. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 375° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.
Brush with melted butter.

Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Antipasti works really well with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. You could try Perrier-Jouet Grand Brut. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 57 dollars per bottle.
Perrier-Jouet Grand Brut
The striking freshness and vivacity of the floral and fruity fragrances (yellow fruits and fresh fruits) take root, before giving way to subtle notes of vanilla and butter, lending the wine a fruity and consistent character. The notes of cherry plum, lemon and bergamot orange emerge first, then make way for the flowers of fruit trees, such as lime and honeysuckle. These are followed by notes of butter, madeleine cakes and vanilla sugar. Lingering notes of grapefruit, white peaches, green pears, apple trees and green hazelnuts round off the taste.
