SESAME CRACKERS - THIN AND CRISPY



Sesame Crackers - Thin and Crispy image

Provided by Victor

Categories     Snack

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast ((7 g; see notes))
1 3/4 cups warm water ((420 ml, 105° to 115°F))
1 Tbsp diastatic malt or honey ((15 ml))
1/2 oz kosher salt ((15 g))
2 ½ Tbsp Asian sesame oil ((40 ml))
6 oz whole wheat flour ((170 g))
20 oz bread flour ((568 g))
1/2 lb sesame seeds ((228 g; a mixture of black and white))

Steps:

  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, dissolve the yeast and the honey in the warm water. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, until the yeast activates and a foam cap forms.
  • Mix in the salt and the sesame oil. Using the dough hook attachment, incorporate the whole wheat flour and all but a handful of the bread flour. Knead until a smooth, elastic dough develops. Keep adding more flour if necessary. Incorporate the sesame seeds. Remove the bowl from the mixer, cover and place in a warm place for 1 hour to proof.
  • Cut the dough into 4-6 pieces. Flatten each piece with your hands or a roller to about ¼ - inch thick. Cover the dough pieces with a piece of plastic wrap and let relax for 15 minutes. Roll each piece out to #6 setting on the KitchenAid pasta roller attachment, which is about 1/64 inch or about 0.5 mm thick (see notes).
  • Lay the rolled out dough on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut the dough sheets into crackers of the desired size and shape. Large triangles or wedges work particularly well. Bake immediately (do not let them rise, or the crackers will be thick instead of thin and crisp) at 375°F (190°C) until deep golden brown (see notes). Rolled out to #6 they need 14-15 minutes of baking.
  • Store in airtight containers.

Time 32m

Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup cold water
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat or parchment paper.
  • Place flour, salt, sugar, and grated cheese in a mixing bowl. Stir together until well mixed. Add rosemary; drizzle with olive oil and add water. Mix with a fork until mixture comes together in a fairly sticky dough and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer dough onto floured surface and add flour as you knead the dough. Knead until it no longer sticks to work surface, 4 to 5 minutes. Divide dough in half.
  • Dust work surface with flour. Roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness or less. Brush or mist surface of dough very lightly with water. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Prick the entire surface of dough with the tines of a fork to prevent crackers from puffing too much when baking.
  • Cut each rolled out half into about 30 pieces with a pizza wheel. You can cut them out in squares, rectangles, or triangles--your choice. Transfer onto prepared baking sheet with a bench scraper or your floured fingers (dough will be very sticky).
  • Bake in preheated oven until perfectly browned and crunchy, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness.

SESAME FLATBREAD

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon active dry yeast (4 grams)
1 teaspoon sugar (5 grams)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 182 grams, more for work surface
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour (67 grams)
1 teaspoon fine sea salt (5 grams)
6 tablespoons unsalted melted butter or canola oil 85 grams, more for bowl and baking sheet
3 tablespoons toasted Asian sesame oil (42 grams)
2 tablespoons sesame seeds (20 grams)
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together 2/3 cup warm water (154 grams), yeast and sugar. Let the mixture stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flours and salt. Stir in the yeast mixture and butter or canola. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic. Transfer dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a dish towel. Let it rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours. Punch down the dough and knead it for 2 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Divide the dough into 6 equal balls. On a lightly floured surface, roll out a ball into an 8-inch circle. Brush with sesame oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds. Fold in all four sides of the circle to meet in the middle, forming a rectangle. Roll the dough again to 8 inches in diameter, then brush with sesame oil, fold in the sides again and roll to 8 inches. Brush the surface with additional sesame oil and transfer dough to a large greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Repeat with the remaining dough balls. (You may need to use several baking sheets, or bake in batches, keeping unrolled dough loosely covered with plastic wrap or a dish towel until ready to use.)
  • Bake until golden and slightly puffed, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly.

SESAME FLATBREAD CRACKERS



Sesame Flatbread Crackers image

Categories     Food Processor     Bake     Cocktail Party     Yogurt     Gourmet

Yield Serves 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup plain yogurt
1 1/4 cups sesame seeds, toasted
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Make dough:
  • Pulse together flour, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until well mixed. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. (Alternatively, whisk together dry ingredients and cut in butter with a pastry blender.) Transfer to a bowl and stir in yogurt and 1 cup sesame seeds until mixture forms a dough. Divide dough into quarters, wrapping each in plastic wrap. Chill 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Make glaze:
  • Stir together eggs, sugar, and soy sauce with a fork until sugar is dissolved.
  • Roll out dough:
  • Divide 1 dough quarter into 12 equal portions and form each into a 4-inch log with your hands. With a floured rolling pin, roll out each log into a 12- to 14-inch strip on a lightly floured surface. Transfer strips to 2 greased baking sheets. Brush strips with glaze and sprinkle with one fourth of remaining sesame seeds.
  • Bake crackers:
  • Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, 20 minutes total, or until glaze is golden brown and crackers are crisp. Transfer to racks to cool. Make more crackers in same manner.

Tips:

  • To make the sesame flatbread crackers, you will need all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sesame seeds, olive oil, and water. The sesame seeds add a nutty flavor and a delightful crunch to the crackers. You can replace the water with milk or yogurt to add a bit of extra richness and flavor.
  • The dough should be soft and slightly sticky. If it is too dry, add a little more water. If it is too wet, add a little more flour. The dough should be rolled out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. If you roll it out too thin, the crackers will be brittle and easily break. If you roll it out too thick, the crackers will be dense and chewy.
  • The crackers should be baked in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on the crackers while they are baking to ensure that they do not burn. You can also sprinkle some additional sesame seeds on top of the crackers before baking for an extra boost of flavor.
  • The sesame flatbread crackers are best served warm and crispy. You can enjoy them on their own as a snack or serve them with your favorite dips and spreads. They are also a great addition to soup or salad.

Conclusion:

Sesame flatbread crackers are a delicious and versatile snack that is easy to make. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or just a casual snack. The crackers are crispy, flavorful, and packed with sesame seeds. They are also a good source of fiber and protein.
