Want to see the ultimate cheese ‘cake’ that these crackers will be perfect with? Here’s our celebration creation, perfect for a wedding.
Ingredients
- 150g rye flour
- 150g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 4 tbsp olive oil, plus extra to brush
- 3 tbsp mixed seeds (such as coriander, fennel and sesame)
You’ll also need…
- 2 baking sheets lined with non-stick baking paper
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Mix the flours and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in 145ml cold water and the
4 tbsp olive oil. Use your hands to bring it together and form a dough, adding a little more water if needed. - Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly. Cut into
10 pieces, then roll out each as thinly as possible into any shape you like. - Transfer the crackers to the lined baking sheets, brush with a little
extra oil and sprinkle with mixed seeds and a grinding of black pepper.
Bake for 7-8 minutes until golden and cooked to your liking (you’ll
need to do this in batches). Transfer to a wire rack to cool and continue with the remaining dough. - Break up the crackers to serve or put in food bags and keep in a cool place (see Make Ahead).
