Black Garlic Cheese Crackers - easy to make dairy-free too if you select dairy-free butter and cheese.
225gm shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp butter, very cold (56gm)
¾ tsp Black Garlic Sea Salt (4gm)
1 tbsp Black Garlic Puree
1 cup all-purpose flour (120gm)
2 tbsp ice water (30gm)
Combine the butter, cheese, salt and Black Garlic Puree in a stand mixer or food processor. Mix until incorporated, about 1-2 mins. Pieces of cheese will still be visible.
Add the flour and mix again until dry and crumbly.
With the mixer running, add the ice water, 1 tbsp at a time, until the mixture forms a dough.
Divded the dough into two pieces, shape into flattened rectangles and wrap with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the dough for 1-2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 190C. Line two large baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.
Roll the dough to about 3mm thickness between two sheets of parchment paper for easy transference.
Cut the dough into small squares and place on the prepared baking sheets. Alternatively, bake as one large sheet of cracker dough and break it into rustic crackers once cooked.
Bake for 25-30 mins, until golden and crisp.
Cool completely on a wire rack.
Top with your favourite toppings and enjoy!
Store in an airtight container for up to a week in the pantry.
This has become an absolute essential in our household — we use it on everything from breakfast eggs to steak and fish. The rich umami flavour of the black garlic paired with quality sea salt adds instant depth to any dish. It vanishes so quickly in our kitchen that I now order it by the kilo. If you’re looking for a versatile, flavour-packed seasoning, this one is a must. Highly recommend!
Best buy the larger quantity bag or container, its great that it doesn't contain free flowing agents, then you can use your own container and make it a special condiment on your table.
Thanks Merv, we promise to keep it pure and great tasting. :)
Only have one word to describe black garlic delicious
We're so pleased you found it delicious - that one word does sum it up nicely. Thank you!
Best condiment I have purchased in years, We put it on everything from Salads to Roast lamb, mix it with goat feta along with Black Garlic puree, it makes the feta very creamy and smooth, over tomatoes, endless uses. Its addictive (but in a good way)
I love the feta and Puree idea in particular - thank you so much for your kind review!
Amazing products. Will definitely be ordering more. Used Black garlic honey on figs. Divine
Perfect use for Black Honey... Your review is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
