Caraway Crackers

Soft blocks for the shop. Love that Fantail fabric

And a wee apron too.


Now, on to the crackers

At first I couldn't believe it when I went to my Annas' house and realised she had actually made her own crackers. I mean, I knew she had the domestic goddess thing down pat, but this truly impressed me. Then she gave me the recipe and showed me it's actually not very tricky at all. I'd love her to start a food blog, but she's a BUSY law student and Mum, so we'll just have to be content with me plagiarizing from her. These are delicious with hummus. They might be nice for those vegans amongst us too? (I'm looking at you, Miss Twenty Cent Mixture)

Caraway Crackers
1 ½ cups Flour
Salt and Pepper
Caraway seeds (or fennel seeds, ground coriander, mixed herbs, or cumin also work)
2 tsp sesame seeds
60ml oil
100ml water

Mix all ingredients together and knead for one minute.
Wrap in cling-film and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Roll dough out very thinly. Cut into rough squares or diamonds. Prick all over with a fork.

Bake at 170⁰C for 10 minutes.
Cool on racks. Store in an airtight container.
