Irresistible Cheese Straws
These are super yum on a platter, dipped in hummus or as an addition to smoko.
Equipment
- Bowl
- Cheese grater
- Butter knife
Ingredients
- 100 grams grated tasty cheese (Colby works well too)
- 80 grams grated butter
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 cup standard flour
- cold tap water
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Gradually add cold tap water until a soft dough forms.
- Turn out onto a floured surface and gently shape into a rectangle. Trim the edges to make a straight line (these pieces can be re-rolled).
- Roll out until the dough is about 5mm in thickness.
- Cut into strips and bake on a lined tray with edges (the butter and cheese to melt and create a mess).
- Bake at 200 until golden and cheesy.
- Once out of the oven - cool the cheese straws on a layer of paper towels.
