PARMESAN CREAM CRACKERS
Crackers can be made with just flour and water (as in water crackers, or matzo), but like almost everything else, they're better with richer ingredients. These are typically made with butter, oil, and milk or cheese, or both, along with flavorings like seeds, herbs and spices. I like a simple, flakey, buttery cracker, often with cheese. This could stem from my childhood addiction to Cheez-Its. Once you get the hang of it, which will take exactly one try, play around. You might skip the cheese and add freshly chopped rosemary or thyme to the dough. Swapping pepper for salt as a topping makes a difference. Or top with minced garlic or onion, sesame or poppy seeds, or whatever is on your favorite commercial cracker. In every case, you are going to make it better.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly dust with flour. Put flour, salt, cheese and butter in bowl of a food processor. Pulse until flour and butter are combined. Add about 1/4 cup cream or half-and-half and let machine run for a bit; continue to add liquid a teaspoon at a time, until mixture holds together but is not sticky.
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface until 1/2-inch thick or even thinner, adding flour as needed. Transfer sheet of dough to prepared baking sheet (drape it over rolling pin to make it easier). Score lightly with a sharp knife, pizza cutter or a pastry wheel if you want to break crackers into squares or rectangles later on. Sprinkle with salt or other topping if you like.
- Bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool on a rack; serve warm or at room temperature or store in a tin for a few days.

Steps:
- Place the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and mix until creamy. Add the Parmesan, flour, salt, thyme and pepper and combine.
- Dump the dough on a lightly floured board and roll into a 13-inch long log. Wrap the log in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 30 minutes to harden.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the log crosswise into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices. Place the slices on a sheet pan and bake for 22 minutes.
PARMESAN CRACKERS
These are dainty little cheese crackers with a pungent, meaty, Parmesan edge. It is that extra step of browning the crackers in a hot oven that lends them so much character. It caramelizes the cheese, giving it an earthy, almost porcinilike intensity. That and using good Parmigiano-Reggiano are the secrets to success. The technique, no rolling pin necessary, is child's play. The result is resolutely adult -- especially when you serve them with wine.

Steps:
- In a food processor, combine ingredients, and pulse until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, and form it into a log 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease two baking sheets. Cut log into 1/4-inch-thick crackers, and place them an inch apart on sheets. Bake until firm, about 12 to 13 minutes. Remove baking sheets from oven, and raise temperature to 500 degrees. When temperature comes up to correct heat, return sheets to oven, and bake for 3 minutes more, or until crackers are deeply golden brown all over. Let cool on a wire rack.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut 2 sheets of parchment paper to fit on a baking sheet. Combine melted butter and truffle oil in a small bowl.
- Place 1 sheet of parchment on a flat work surface. Gently place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on top. Brush lightly with the butter mixture right up to the edges, being careful not to tear the sheet. Place another sheet of phyllo on top. Press down to remove any air pockets, and brush with butter. Repeat 3 more times. Brush the 5th and last sheet with egg white instead of butter. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the Parmesan cheese, truffle salt, and pepper.
- Cut the phyllo into 40 squares, or into the shape of your choice, using a pizza cutter. Slide the whole parchment sheet onto the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Keep a close eye on them, as they tend to brown quickly. Remove parchment sheet from baking sheet and let cool.
- Repeat process with remaining ingredients. Let crackers cool and serve immediately, or store at room temperature in a sealed container.
