Best Goat Cheese Cucumber And Dill Tea Crackers Recipes

GOAT CHEESE AND THYME CRACKERS

Steps:

• In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment blend the goat cheese and butter until smooth. Add the thyme, zest, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Taste a bit, and season with more salt, if needed and add a few grinds of pepper. Add the flour and blend until smooth. Remove the dough and using a piece of plastic wrap to guide and mold, roll the dough into an 8-inch long log. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Remove the dough log from the refrigerator and cut into 1/3-inch discs. Place on an ungreased parchment paper-lined baking sheet, about an inch apart. Bake until golden on top and set, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and slide the parchment off of the baking sheet and onto a cooling rack with the crackers still attached. Cool completely before eating.

CREAMY GOAT CHEESE AND CUCUMBER SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a mini-processor (or if multiplying the recipe, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade), blend together the goat cheese, cottage cheese and yogurt until smooth. Add the sumac and mix together.
• Spread half the cheese mixture on one slice of the bread. Sprinkle with dill. Top with a layer of thinly sliced celery. Top the celery with a layer of cucumber slices. Season if desired with salt and pepper and sprinkle on more dill. Spread the remaining cheese over the top slice of bread and sprinkle the walnuts over the cream so that they stick. Reverse the top slice onto the cucumber layer, press the sandwich gently (not too hard or the cream will ooze out), cut in half and serve.
