PARMESAN AND SESAME CRIMPLE CRACKERS
I made these for dinner guests and everyone enjoyed them. Cooking them in batches takes a little long but if you have a few oven trays it would be faster. These could could serve these unusual crackers after dinner (supper) with cheese, dried fruit, nuts and wine. I served the with cheese and grapes. The recipe comes from a book called 100 favourite cakes and biscuits by Alison Holst

Steps:
- Heat oven to 160°C (150°C fanbake), with the rack just below the middle.
- Measure the first five ingredients into a food processor or large bowl. Pour 1/2 cup warms water into a one cup measure, stir in the salt and sugar until dissolved, then add the oil. Process the dry ingredients in bursts (or toss them together with a fork), while you add the hot liquid mixture in a steady stream. Add as much of the remaining hot water as you need to form a ball of soft dough.
- Cut the dough into four parts and put three aside in a plastic bag. Roll out the other piece VERY thinly on a floured board, using extra flour to stop it sticking, making an oval shape bigger than an A4 size page. Cut in half (lengthwise), then cut each half into 10-12 tall, thin (pennant shaped) triangles, with alternate narrow bases and points on the cut edge. Perfect shapes aren't necessary and outside edges need not be trimmed. Prick crackers with a fork or skewer, Place on a metal cake rack to bake, crumpling but not folding them.
- Bake them on the rack for 10-15 minutes, until pale gold but dry and very crisp. Lower heat and cook longer if necessary. Repeat with remaining pieces of dough. When cold, store in airtight containers, reheating if crackers soften or storage.
- Flavour develops fully after about 12 hours.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease two cookie sheets with butter and set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix first four ingredients and then sift them two times with a flour sifter. To this dry mix, add yogurt, cutting it in with a pastry blender. Set aside.
- Melt butter in small saucepan and toast sesame seeds in butter until they start to smell nutty and get a bit browned. Add sesame seeds to dry mix and then ice water. Knead this mixture a bit, perhaps 20 strokes. If dough is still too sticky, add a handful of wheat flour until you can manage to roll it out on a flat surface.
- Roll to 1/8 inch thick and cut into desired shapes. Poke many holes into each individual cracker with a fork.
- Arrange on cookie sheets with about 1/4 inch between each cracker. Bake for 10 minutes or starting to brown at edges. Cool on baker's rack.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the sesame seeds and Parmesan cheese. Freshly grated Parmesan will provide the best flavor.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crackers tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help the dough to be less sticky and easier to work with.
- Roll the dough out thinly. The thinner the dough, the crispier the crackers will be.
- Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to score the dough. This will help the crackers to break apart easily after baking.
- Bake the crackers until they are golden brown. Keep a close eye on them, as they can burn easily.

These rustic sesame Parmesan crackers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just to enjoy as a snack at home.
