Instructions
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and 2 tablespoons sugar in 1/2 cup water. In a saucepan, heat the milk, butter and remaining water to 110°-115°; add to yeast mixture.
Add eggs, salt, 5 cups flour and the remaining sugar; beat until smooth.
Add enough of the remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Divide into thirds; roll each portion into a 14-in. roll. Divide each roll into 14 pieces.
Roll pieces into 9-in. ropes and tie into knots.
Place the rolls 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Brush with melted butter.
Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé are great choices for Antipasti. 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. The Laurent-Perrier Brut ( Split) with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Laurent-Perrier Brut ( Split)
The flagship of Laurent-Perrier, which embodies the House style: deliciously fresh and easy to drink. The blend is composed of over 55 different Crus (with an average 94% rating). After being aged for over three years, 'Liqueur d'expedition' is added and the champagne is matured for a further six months. The result is a delicate yet complex nose, with hints of citrus fruit, and a good balanced palate. Perfect as an aperitif, is also goes very well with food.
