Time 1h18m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

7 ounces self-rising flour
½ cup unsalted butter
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 ½ cups grated Parmesan cheese
1 whole egg
1 egg, separated
1 teaspoon English mustard
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds

Steps:

  • Combine flour, butter, and cayenne pepper in a bowl and rub together with your fingers until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. Mix in Parmesan cheese. Add whole egg, egg yolk, and mustard and mix until dough comes together.
  • Tip dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead lightly for 30 seconds. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
  • Roll out dough with a floured rolling pin on a floured work surface into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut with a sharp knife or pizza cutter into 24 straws and carefully twist each straw twice. Lay the straws onto the prepared baking sheets. Beat egg white with a fork until frothy and brush over cheese straws. Sprinkle with sesame and poppy seeds.
  • Bake in a preheated oven until golden, 18 to 20 minutes.

These cheese straws were a little bland. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I had a hard time getting the cheese straws to stay together. They kept falling apart when I tried to roll them.

These cheese straws were a little too salty for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I'll probably make them again with less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of cheese straws, but these were actually really good. They were light and flaky, and the cheese flavor was perfect.
