Im still not sure if I should call them biscuits or crackers, theyre not really either..what they are is delicious! The combination of rosemary and thyme with parmesan cheese and walnuts thrown in makes them irresistible to anyone who comes within 100 feet of them. And when you cook them they fill your home with the most wonderful aroma.
rough chop 1/2 cup of walnuts, then toast them in the oven at 300 for about 10 minutes.keep an eye on them so they dont burn
finely chop 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary or you can use 1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary
use fresh rosemary if possible, it makes all the difference
add 1 cup of all-purpose flour to a bowl
followed by the walnuts
and the rosemary
next add 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt.you could use table salt, but I like the flavor of kosher salt much better
add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper..or you could just give it two good shakes like I did.go ahead, walk on the wild side with me
next add a pinch of black pepper
grate 1 1/2 cups of parmesan cheese
and in another bowl cut into pats 1 stick of salted butter
mix the butter with a hand mixer until its smooth and light
then add the 1 1/2 cups of parmesan cheese to the butter
mix the cheese and the butter together
add the bowl of dry ingredients to the butter and cheese mixture
mix all the ingredients until well incorporated
Oops! I almost forgot to add 1/2 teaspoon of thymeadd the thyme and give it a quick mixing
on a sheet of plastic wrap pour 1/2 of the dough in the form of a line
fold the plastic wrap to help form the contents into a log
then use your hands on the outside of the plastic to squish and compact the dough
leave the formed dough in the plastic wrap in put it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes
at this point you could leave the dough in the fridge for up to 5 days until you need it
when youre ready, unwrap itits not pretty, but just you wait.you wont believe how good it tastes
cut it with a downward motion using a very sharp knife
place them on a cookie sheet
and run them in a preheated oven at 350′ for 15 minutes
Yum!!! they are so good
Enjoy!
