Into a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water and let sit for 5 minutes until bubbles and foam form. Into mixer bowl combine flour and salt, mix in the melted butter. Pour the yeast mixture into the flour and continue to mix until combined. Turn out dough onto a floured surface and knead the dough for about 10 minutes. Place dough in a well buttered bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let sit for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until doubled in size. Take roughly 2 oz portions of the dough and roll it out on a floured surface to form breadsticks that are 7 inches long. Place breadsticks on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Cover and set aside for another 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in size again. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush each one with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic salt. Serve warm.
