White Cheddar Cracker Croutons Recipe - Cooking Index
| 2 cups | 125g / 4.4oz | Flour |
| 1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Cayenne |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
| 1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Dry mustard |
| 3/4 cup | 148g / 5.2oz | Cold butter |
| 1/2 cup | 73g / 2.6oz | Grated white Cheddar cheese |
| 5 tablespoons | 75ml | Cold water - (to 6 tbspns) |
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cayenne, salt, mustard, and butter. Mix until mixture resembles a coarse crumb-like mixture. Add the cheese and mix well. Add the water a tablespoon at a time and let sit for 1 minute. Either using a fork or your hands, carefully press the mixture together forming a soft ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough out on the floured surface into a rectangle 16 by 12 inches in diameter and 1/8-inch thick. Cut the dough into 3-inch by 1-inch strips. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
This recipe yields about 4 dozen.
