-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter -- (1 stick), cut into sm
pieces and chilled
1 cup plain yogurt
3/4 cup sesame seeds -- toasted
1/3 cup poppy seeds
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon sugar
Homemade crackers are easy to make, and the resulting crisps can host
almost any cheese, from a semisoft or soft ripened like Brie to a
semihard one like goat's milk Cheddar.
Prepare the dough: Preheat oven to 350F. Pulse together flour,
baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a
metal blade. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles
coarse meal. Transfer the flour mixture to a large bowl and add the
yogurt, 1/2 c sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. Stir just until the
ingredients are incorporated. Divide the dough into quarters, wrap
in plastic wrap, and chill for 10 min.
Bake the crackers: Lightly coat a baking sheet with vegetable oil
and set aside. Lightly beat the eggs and sugar together in a sm bowl
until the sugar dissolves and set aside. Roll the dough out on a
lightly floured surface to a 10" by 16" rectangle about a 1/4" thick.
Brush the dough with the egg wash and sprinkle evenly with the 5"
rectangles and bake on the prepared baking sheet until browned -
about 25 min. Transfer crackers to a wire rack to cool completely
and store in an airtight container until ready to serve for up to 1 week.
