How to make cheese crackers at home

Small and crunchy crackers with salt, which were sold in large cardboard boxes as children - how we loved them.

But I never could have thought that their preparation could be repeated at home, because their structure is not as simple as it seems: slightly flaky, but each layer is very thin and fragile.

If usually everyone rushes only to sweet pastries, this time the salty one will not lie on the sidelines and will be awarded the same attention.

Crackers are very flavorful thanks to the most important ingredient used in cooking: cheese.

Cheese crackers are not only a great breakfast option, but also a good way to get rid of old or "not the best" cheese.

Few ingredients are required, cooking time is even less, so enjoy the new recipe and remember the way it is prepared.

Cheese crackers, recipe with photo

Ingredients:

Hard cheese - 100 grams;

Butter (margarine) - 100 grams;

Chicken yolk - 1 piece;

Wheat flour - 100 grams;

Salt or other spices - to taste.

Cooking:

1. The first point will be the simplest and easiest: rub the cheese on a fine grater. Choose the smallest-grain one so that it is easy to work with the future test.

2. Add butter or margarine to the grated cheese, depending on what you choose (the cracker will be even more tender with butter, but I used margarine), and knead the dough. At the same time, add the chicken yolk.

3. The last step is to knead the cheese dough using a wheat hand. In this step, you do not need to use cutlery, just knead the dough with your hands.

After, we put it in a bag and send it to the refrigerator for half an hour so that it hardens slightly, “grabs” and it becomes easier to work with it.

4. Divide the cheese dough into 4 parts (if you want large crackers, divide into 2 parts) and roll out one of the koloboks into a layer. We cut it as shown in the photo and make holes with a cocktail stick or other improvised means, in a chaotic manner. From above, pour salt or other seasonings used on the cheese blanks.

5. On an oiled baking sheet (for ease of preparation and removal, we use foil or parchment paper) lay out the blanks.

It is better to preheat the oven to 180-200 degrees in advance and then bake crackers in it for about 10-20 minutes. We focus on the golden crust. It is impossible to give an exact time, because the features of the oven are different for everyone, and there are cases when only 10 minutes were enough for cooking. In my case, it took as many as 20.

6. Cheese crackers, with salt, crispy and very tasty - ready.

Total cooking time: 30 minutes + 30 minutes;

Total servings: 5 servings.
