Recipe: Olive Oil Crackers Recipe

What kind of cracker? The cracker recipe I'm featuring today makes thin, snappy, rustic crackers. Though they are sturdy enough to stand up to a hearty dip. The technique is simple and straightforward (utilizing just a few ingredients) and the dough is a welcoming canvas to all manner of seeds, salts, cheeses, spices, or flavored oils that you might want to use as accents.

Recipe: To make the perfect cracker, add cheese

If you think of crackers as little bits of pie crust, or fast-cooking bread, you quickly comprehend why they're so easy to make. Which only makes it more befuddling that no one does, since packaged crackers are universally overpriced and often contain ingredients with which you'd never cook.

Crackers can be made with just flour and water, but like almost everything else, they're better with richer ingredients. These, typically, are butter, oil and milk or cheese, or both, along with seeds, herbs and spices.
