PARMESAN CRISPS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Grate 2 ounces of the Parmesan using the side of the box grater that finely grinds the cheese and then grate 2 ounces of the Parmesan using the side of the box grater that makes long shreds of cheese, and then mix them together. Drop rounded tablespoons of the grated Parmesan on the parchment paper to make neat mounds. Bake in the oven for 6 minutes until golden.
- Cool slightly and loosen with a metal spatula. Serve at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, unsalted butter, and pure vanilla extract are all essential.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crisps tough.
- Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help the crisps keep their shape.
- If your kitchen is warm, chill the dough after cutting it into shapes.
- Bake the crisps until they are golden brown around the edges. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the crisps cool completely before storing them. This will help them stay crispy.
