SALT AND PEPPER CRACKERS



Salt and Pepper Crackers image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 1h30m

Yield 32 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 3/4 sticks salted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1/2 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons flaked sea salt, to finish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or baking mats.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together in an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until blended, for approximately 30 seconds. Sift the flour and cornstarch together in a bowl, and then add to the mixer and mix until the ingredients all come together. Finally, sprinkle over the black pepper and mix again. Tip the dough out onto a board and form it into 2 discs. Wrap each in plastic wrap and refrigerate 20 minutes.
  • Place a piece of parchment paper on the counter, approximately 12-by-15-inch in size, and dust with flour. When the dough has rested, unwrap the first ball, put on top of the parchment paper, flour the surface of the dough and rolling pin and roll out to a 9-inch diameter circle, 1/16-inch thick.
  • Trim the circle into an 8-by-8-inch square, discarding the scraps. Then cut down in 2-inch strips and across in 2-inch strips, making sixteen 2-by-2-inch squares. Using a small offset spatula, place the squares on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle a pinch of flaked sea salt over each cracker. Repeat the process with the second dough ball.
  • Bake for 18 minutes. Do not allow the crackers to brown; check your oven sooner if it runs hot. Set aside to cool for 20 to 25 minutes before packaging up.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Yield Makes 60 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup bread flour
1 cup instant polenta
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup grated Mimolette cheese
2 1/2 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk
All-purpose flour, for work surface

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats; set aside.
  • Place bread flour, polenta, salt, baking soda, paprika, pepper, and cheese in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. With the machine running, add buttermilk. Continue processing until dough just forms a ball. Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for a few seconds. Wrap dough in plastic and let rest at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • Cut dough into quarters. Using 1 piece at a time, roll out dough 1/16 inch thick on a lightly floured work surface. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off the excess flour. Keep remaining pieces covered with plastic wrap.
  • Using a 1 3/4-inch fluted round cookie cutter or a small fluted pastry wheel, cut out crackers and place on prepared baking sheet at least 1/2 inch apart. Roll out a second piece of dough 1/16 inch thick and repeat cutting process; place on second prepared baking sheet. Transfer baking sheets to oven and bake until crackers are golden brown and crisp, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating once halfway through baking. Transfer crackers immediately to a wire cooling rack; let cool completely. Repeat process with remaining dough.

GREEN-PEPPERCORN CORNMEAL CRACKERS



Green-Peppercorn Cornmeal Crackers image

Provided by Ruth Cousineau

Categories     Blender     Bake     Cocktail Party     Cornmeal     Engagement Party     Buttermilk     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 60

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal (preferably stone-ground)
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons packed light brown sugar
4 teaspoons dried green peppercorns, coarsely crushed, divided
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2/3 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Whisk together flours, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons peppercorns, and table salt in a bowl. Blend in butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and stir just until a dough forms. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead 6 to 8 times. Cut into 5 pieces, then chill, covered with plastic wrap, 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
  • Mix kosher salt and remaining 2 teaspoons peppercorns in a small bowl.
  • Roll out 1 piece of dough on a well-floured surface with a floured rolling pin into a 15- by 4-inch rectangle (1/8 inch thick). Lightly brush with egg, then prick all over with a fork. Sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon salt-and-pepper mixture.
  • Cut crosswise into 12 strips and arrange 1/8 inch apart on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through, until golden-brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool crackers slightly, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

Tips for Making Corn and Black Pepper Crackers

  • To achieve the best texture for your crackers, use a combination of cornmeal and all-purpose flour. The cornmeal will provide a slightly gritty texture, while the all-purpose flour will help to hold the crackers together.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the crackers from spreading too much in the oven.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch. If you press too hard, the crackers will be tough.
  • Use a sharp knife or pastry wheel to cut the crackers into even strips. This will help them to bake evenly.
  • Bake the crackers in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on them, as they can burn easily.
  • Let the crackers cool completely before storing them. This will help them to crisp up even more.

Conclusion

Corn and black pepper crackers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a simple snack at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these crackers that will be sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a tasty and healthy snack, give these corn and black pepper crackers a try.
