Ingredients

How to make it

  • Put the flour in a medium bowl. Add softened butter and work the dough with the fork until flour is well incorporated and starts to come together (refer to pictures).
  • Add the egg yolk, sugar, Parmesan, salt and mustard powder to the flour/butter mix. Work them in with the fork, until comes together nicely.
  • Shape the mixture into a log. Roll it between the palms of your hands to help shape it. Wrap the log in foil or ceran wrap and chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Cut the log into thin slices with a sharp knife (about 1/4 inch thick ).
  • Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Dip a fork in flour and flatten the crackers with the fork prongs to give them a pretty ridged pattern (refer to pictures).
  • Bake for 10 minutes, or until the crackers are crisp and lightly golden.
  • Serve on their own, or with your favourite dip. Also great with soups. This recipe makes about 20 crackers.

    Hi Juels!
    I just added 2 of my pix to this recipe, but can't figure out why my titles didn't show up under the pictures! Feel free to remove them, 'cause I can't! I made the crackers today and sprinkled just a little bit of Paprika on the top of them before baking, just for a little color. Also, I cut them to about 1/8 of an inch thick, then turned around and used the fork to made a design; when the cookies were cooled and I removed them, they were very fragile and many broke. They were delicious, but I think it would have been better if I had cut them 1/4 inch thick or a little thicker, and then pressed very lightly on the cracker. I am looking forward to having them with cocktails this evening! Thanks, Juels! (I rated these a 5, 'cause they taste very good and I sliced them too thin.)

    I haven't added any herbs to this before, although I think a little rosemarry, thyme or oregano would be just fine!

    I just made these and they are very good! I made them as written except I added 1 tsp. garlic powder and instead of a pinch of salt, I added 1 tsp....This went perfectly with the Barley Lentil Soup I made! I only wish I would of doubled the batch because it only made 20 crackers...I just ate about 8 of them and its not even dinner time yet! This is so easy to make maybe I can make another batch before dinner! I added a pic!:)

    And yet another mouth-watering picture, making me want to run out to the kitchen and try these right now! They sound easy enough, and tasty enough for a gourmet side - would be so good with a hot cup of soup (YES,it is STILL cold around here, and now rainy on top of it...sheesh). Thanks, juels - I have printed this one off...Krum
