Saffron and Cumin Seed Crackers
I've made crackers in the past, and they are not too difficult to make at all. The secret is to roll the cracker dough as thin as possible so that they come out crispy. These colorful crackers are gently spiced with cumin seeds and saffron. Break them up to into pieces after they come out of the oven that are convenient for your purposes.
These crackers are a special treat to serve along with a bowl of soup and make an ideal addition to an appetizer platter with favorite spreads, dips and sauces and other little nibbles, such as cheese and olives. I made up a batch of homemade guacamole and I had plenty of crackers leftover too to enjoy for a couple of days afterwards.
I thought that I had pretty much every kitchen tool or gadget I could think of ever using and then I discovered a silicone baking mat. These mats are inexpensive and perfect if you make dough for rolls, breads, biscuits, scones, pies, pizzas, pastries, or, in this case, dough to be shaped for crackers. You can buy larger versions for making pastries such as pie crusts or for larger breads and pizza. The great thing about these is they stick to the counter surface and you can brush with oil or sprinkle with flour for the kneading and rolling part and the cleanup is a snap. Just wash with soap and water and dry. For convenient storage, they can be rolled up and stashed away until you need to use it again. They can also be used for oven baking, so you don't need to line your baking pan with parchment paper or grease it when making cookies or pastries or any other thing you want to bake. I have two sizes now, because I'm totally sold on this handy kitchen idea.
