Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 lb flour
2 ounces butter
2 ounces grated parmesan cheese
1 pinch salt
3 dashes cayenne pepper

Steps:

Mix into a paste with the yolk of an egg.
Roll out to the thickness of a silver quarter, about four or five inches long; cut into strips about a third of an inch wide, twist
them as you would a paper spill, and lay them on a baking-sheet slightly floured.
Bake in a moderate oven until crisp, but they must not be the least brown.
If put away in a tin, these cheese straws will keep a long time.
Serve cold, piled tastefully on a glass dish.
You can make the straws of remnants of puff-pastry, rolling in the grated cheese.
Cooking time is an estimate, watch carefully.
