Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
5 tb Sesame seeds -- toasted
2 c All-purpose flour
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 c Oil
1/2 c Water
1 Egg --
- lightly beaten, diluted with:
1 tb Milk -- up to 2 tb

"The flavor of sesame comes through very nicely in these crispy
crackers. Try them wih your favorite chutney or with cream cheese
and jam. If you are feeling extravagant, spread them with sour
cream and caviar."

325?F 20 to 25 minutes

Preheat the oven to 325?F. In a food mill or blender, grind the
sesame seeds until coarsely broken. A food processor will not
effectively grind this small quantity. If preferred, you can leave
the seeds whole. In a large bowl or in the food processor, stir
together the flour, seeds, and salt. Add the oil and blend until
the mixture resembles coarse meal. Blend in enough of the water, a
little at a time, to form a dough that will hold together in a
cohesive ball. If necessary, add up to 1 tb more water. Divide the
dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or
pastry cloth, roll to 1/16" thick. With a sharp knife or cookie
cutter, cut in desired shapes approximately 2" across. Arrange on
an ungreased baking sheet. Prick each cracker in 2 or 3 places with
the tines of a fork. Brush the tops lightly with the egg mixture.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the crackers are light to
medium brown. Cool on a rack.
