made some crackers
« Reply #-1 on: January 14, 2014, 03:22:05 PM »
So I'm in the kitchen with a ball of dough I just mixed up...it's resting in a bowl while I figger out what to do with it.  Here's what we did.  I divided it into thirds.  Next I turned a baking pan upside down, floured it good, and rolled one ball out from edge to edge - it was quite thin.  Then, I scored it and pierced it.  Did the same thing with the other two balls of dough.  I brushed on a thin coat of EVOO and sprinkled with seasonings.
The oven had been heated to 425*  so  put the pans in and let the crackers bake till they were turning a light brown.(about 10 -12 minutes)
Put 'em on a cookie cracker sheet to let 'em cool.  They seemed to turn out.  Deb really liked 'em.
I managed to take some pics instead of video...hoping you don't mind.

Looks great!  Homemade crackers are definitely worth a try.  My wife found a recipe a year or so ago and made them - were delicious.  In the next batch we added a handful of Parmesan cheese - were even better

VERY basic...as in all-purpose flour, salt, water & EVOO.  Gave it a ride with a dough hook for a while.

Probably the key thing is to roll 'em real thin.  You can use one large baking pan, but I went for 3 smaller ones so I could try different seasonings.

Would use these crackers like a cheese and cracker or in soup?

Otherwise a cool trick ;D

Looks great!  Homemade crackers are definitely worth a try.  My wife found a recipe a year or so ago and made them - were delicious.  In the next batch we added a handful of Parmesan cheese - were even better

One of the seasonings we used was a parmesan blend with dried herbs  (we got those in a small jar to mix with EVOO and dip some bread).  One batch was topped with roasted sesame seeds and were probably my favorites.

These crackers are good for snackin' and  they would be fine with cheese, but probably better with/ in soup.

This was a recipe that came out in our Sunday paper.  A local cooking instructor writes an article every week.  This article included  different biscuit recipes - including buttermilk biscuits.  The idea of makin' crackers just appealed to me, and since the weather is crappy outside, I figgered I'd try something new inside..  I HIGHLY recommend it during these winter months - unless you happen to live in sunny California.
