Parmesan Crackers image

These are dainty little cheese crackers with a pungent, meaty, Parmesan edge. It is that extra step of browning the crackers in a hot oven that lends them so much character. It caramelizes the cheese, giving it an earthy, almost porcinilike intensity. That and using good Parmigiano-Reggiano are the secrets to success. The technique, no rolling pin necessary, is child's play. The result is resolutely adult -- especially when you serve them with wine.

Time 2h20m

Yield 40 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • In a food processor, combine ingredients, and pulse until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, and form it into a log 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease two baking sheets. Cut log into 1/4-inch-thick crackers, and place them an inch apart on sheets. Bake until firm, about 12 to 13 minutes. Remove baking sheets from oven, and raise temperature to 500 degrees. When temperature comes up to correct heat, return sheets to oven, and bake for 3 minutes more, or until crackers are deeply golden brown all over. Let cool on a wire rack.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crackers turned out really dry. Maybe I overbaked them?

Overall, I thought these crackers were okay. They're not my favorite, but they're not bad either.

I found the dough to be a bit difficult to work with. It was very sticky and hard to roll out.

These crackers are a bit too salty for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of parmesan cheese, but I still enjoyed these crackers. They're light and flaky, and the cheese flavor isn't overpowering.
