Making crackers is a challenge but when it works, what a reward! Great job! I love the spices in this recipe.

I like your cracker recipe. The one I made a long time ago was too involved. What a fun, delicious recipe! Yum, Hugs, Terra

Charlie, I’m so glad you were honest in describing the process of cracker making as perhaps more challenging at first than one might expect. I am really interested and it’s worth a little practice. I have been known to spend way too much on those pretty little cellophane packages of artisan crackers.They look so perfect when entertaining! I have also really enjoyed the way you highlight cooking blogs that have inspired you. You are so talented that to be introduced to some of your “inspirations” is really fun!

Charlie, you are such a sweetheart! Thank you for such kind words, I’m very touched! I can still remember so clearly our first lunch in Mosman – it doesn’t seem that long ago, but it must have been ages! I think your crackers look fantastic – these days we’re much lazier and I usually squish pita bread in a cafe press to make crackers, or use a pasta maker to roll them out (you need a drier dough than this one, but it works well!). I’ll happily show you how I make crackers if you’d teach me how to hold the #%$# piping bag properly! I always end up covered in buttercream! 😀

You’re still two steps ahead of me! I’ve never made crackers but you may have just inspired me. 1kg of flour is a huge amount though so I’ll definitely take your tip and halve it.

You’ve inspired me once again, Charlie. The recipes sounds and looks wonderful, if intimidating a bit. You have me wondering if I could use my tortilla press instead of rolling out the dough?????? Lift, stretch, press? Oh, I fear I am lazy.

These crackers looks super crispy and delicious. You are one up on me as I have not tried to make crackers at home yet, unless dog biscuits count…. LOL These crackers are way too fancy for our pooches..

I tend to procrastinate cracker making too – something about it just feels hard! I’m impressed with your efforts here and hopefully can take some inspiration to make a batch myself.
