CORN CRACKERS
I love homemade crackers. You can make them any size and shape and have control of what their flavor will be. These are fun to serve in a basket as an appetizer for a dinner party, but also my kids think they are pretty cool to have at lunch. They taste great alone or w/ a soft cheese spread.

SPICY CORNMEAL CRACKERS
From the Baker's Dozen cookbook. Beautiful crackers! You may cook both sheets of crackers at once if you have 2 baking stones, however, halfway though the baking time, switch the sheets so that they bake more evenly. If you allow for the dough to chill for 1hr+ it may crack and need to sit for 10 minutes to lose its chill. Overmixing the dough will make your crackers tough, so be careful! Prep time does not include chilling.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer use the paddle attachment to combine the water and oil.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, cornmeal, salt (not the coarse salt), and red pepper flakes.
- Turn the machine onto low and pour in flour mixture.
- Blend just until the dough comes together.
- By hand- mix flour, cornmeal, salt and pepper flakes in a large bowl.
- Mix oil and water in a separate medium bowl.
- Make a well in the flour mixture and pour oil/water into the center.
- Mix with a wooden spoon until just combined, as with muffins. (This may require some hand-kneading to combine thoroughly)
- On a lightly floured surface, pat dough into a flat rectangle.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 500°F.
- If using baking stone (preferred method) place stone in oven about 45 minutes before baking to heat.
- Place the rack in the center of the oven.
- Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment.
- Remove from refrigerator and dough into 2 equal pieces.
- On a lightly floured surface roll dough into a 16x12 inch rectangle.
- (If dough "resists and retracts" let is rest and work with the other piece of dough) Transfer your rectangles to your baking sheet by lightly rolling them around your rolling pin then spreading them on the baking sheets.
- Poke each rectangle all over with a fork.
- If you would like consistent shapes, score lightly with a sharp knife.
- Mist with water and sprinkle with the course salt.
- Bake for about 10 minutes until dough is set- one sheet at a time.
- Transfer on the paper onto a rack to cool.
- Let cool completely, then break into irregularly shaped crackers or break at score marks.
- Store into an airtight container for up to 3 days.
BLUE CHEESE AND WALNUT CRACKERS
Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and Stilton together for 1 minute, or until smooth. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour, salt and pepper and mix until it's in large crumbles, about 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon of water and mix until combined.
- Dump the dough onto a floured board, press it into a ball, and roll into a 12-inch long log. Brush the log completely with the egg wash. Spread the walnuts in a square on a cutting board and roll the log back and forth in the walnuts, pressing lightly, and distributing them evenly on the outside of the log. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or for up to 4 days.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the log 3/8ths-inch thick with a small, sharp knife and place the crackers on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 22 minutes until very lightly browned. Rotate the pan once during baking. Cool and serve at room temperature.
