    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1              clove  garlic -- minced
    3        tablespoons  extra virgin olive oil -- plus 1 tablespoon
    1           teaspoon  extra virgin olive oil -- (50 ml)
    8               cups  all-purpose flour -- (1 kg)1
    1         tablespoon  yeast -- fresh, (20 g), plus
    2          teaspoons  yeast -- fresh, crumbled
    2 1/3           cups  water -- (550 ml), 85 - 95F, (30 - 35C)
    1         tablespoon  salt -- (20 g)

1.   Combine the garlic and olive oil in a small bowl and let stand.

2.   Put the flour on to a clean work surface and make a well in the 
center.  Dissolve the yeast in the water.  Pour the yeast mixture 
into the well, gradually start incorporating it into the flour until 
a loose dough starts to form, and then begin to knead.  When the 
dough begins to take shape, add the oil with the garlic, soft, 
smooth, and elastic.

3.   Let the dough rest, covered with a sheet of lightly greased 
plastic wrap, for about 10 min.

4.   Roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a thickness of about 
1/25 (1mm).  Cut the crackers into shapes of your choice with a 
fluted pastry wheel, and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with 
parchment paper.  Let rise in a warm place for about 40 min, covered 
with a sheet of lightly greased plastic wrap.

Before baking, prick the crackers with a fork to keep them from 
puffing up during cooking.  Bake in the oven at 370F (190C) for 15 
min, or until golden brown and crispy.
