Looking for the best thin cracker to snack on our homemade cured salmon, jams, pate, cheese, caviar, spreads, and reading about the amount of salt and other preservatives and coloring chemicals in store bought crackers, we decided to make our own.
These stay crisp and taste fresh in a closed cookie jar after air drying in your oven.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
