Mary, I love you, but I find your videos too long, to wordy, so full of a bewildering array of variations. Chef John's videos on food wishes run between 10 and 15 minutes. He has the key! Your videos are like mine would be if I did them. You throw all of the information possible at the viewers. I would too! But I would make the videos too long as well. It might be better to just mention a few of the variations possible, and refer the viewer to the recipe to discover them on their own, over there.
@@safieht5299 True. But in my case, for example, I'm looking to replace some of my more horrible eating habits with healthier ones. Currently, I have a mild problem with cheap, store-bought, bleached white-flour cookies with processed white sugar and vegetable shortening interiors. Ouch. So I like the recipe for the dried fruit and nut crackers. I understand these little crackers to be much healthier for me than what I've been eating. I think this is why some of us really appreciate these recipes. I also sometimes go berzerk with the store-bought Cheez-It, so if I make the little cheese cracker recipe it will help me out a lot.
My husband and I can not believe that this woman is real. She must have been sent down from Heaven. Who is this nice? Who is this gracious? Ok, I forgot, we love Paula Dean, but Mary is most likely a true Angel really. I am positive of this.
I watched Paula Dean from her beginning and witnessed how she went from solid to fake as she grew in popularity. Mary is a true gem....not a paste gem like Paula. Please forgive if I’ve offended.
Cranberry crackers served with warm brie! What about dill + pepper crackers served with smoked salmon? This is easier than getting dressed in all your winter gear, thawing out the car, shovelling snow to get to the store and spending unbelievable prices for custom crackers. Thanks so much.
These are fabulous! I used sun-dried tomatoes and Mediterranean olives chopped fine with some Italian herbs. They were absolutely delicious. Thank you Mary!
Thank you so much for this recipe and explaining it in a way that made me feel like I could do it. I made the cheddar crackers and they were sooooo tasty! I really really love your channel. You also made me not scared to make bread and it came out great. I made the crackers with Einkorn and thought wow.. this is what crackers used to be when they actually had nutritional value. Thank you ♡
Hi Mary! 🏵 Here is my adapted recipe for sesame garlic crackers. It made about 50. 2 cups whole wheat flour 2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese 2 tsp garlic salt 1 Tbsp sesame seeds 1 Tbsp flax seeds 1 stick butter 1/2 cup whole milk Pink sea salt for sprinkling I used your method, with an 8" log. They are quite tasty! I am going to serve them with cheese and our customary Sunday evening green salad after church. Thank you so much!
Mary, I've been wanting to make these for a least a week. I was almost out of wheat berries until recently. I've tried several recipes over the years but they weren't what I was looking for. I made the herb crackers with ground rosemary and granulated garlic. I also added a little baking soda. They were The Best crackers I've ever had!👍 Thank you so much for your impeccable teaching! 💜🤗
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe. And it's easy! The only thing, and it's just personal taste really, is they seemed a bit salty. So I will just use half the salt next time. You are such a great teacher!
Oh Pam, Thank you SO much for the kind words!! And yes, salt is such a personal taste - and much can depend on how much salt was used when packing the salmon in the can. Yes, using half the salt next time is a great idea. So glad you’re here!! Love, Mary
I made the cheese crackers with the mustard powder and my family loved them. All I had was all purpose flour and it took extra cream instead of less. It kept crumbling on me so my slices were a little thicker and took longer to bake, but they were wonderful. Thanks again, Mary!
Hi Jim, So glad your family enjoyed them! And happy to you figured out how much cream it needed. The conditions in everyone's kitchen are different and the weather outside plays a roll as well so there are always variables...so I'm happy you found what worked in your kitchen. Love, Mary
Mary i am so going to make these!! I think homemade would be so much tastier and cheaper than buying these in the store - especially in Australia where we don't have a big choice of crackers and they are super expensive!
These are basically very thin little pie crusts, so they are fragile unlike many commercial crackers. I may try cooking them an extra minute the next time. I’m also going to try using a portion of buckwheat flour and/or almond flour to reduce the gluten. They work for me because I don’t want to eat processed foods and all the poisons they contain AND they are so easy. Another winner, Mary. Thank you.
Hi Mary, thanks so much for this recipe. I was wondering if you could start putting the ingredients below your show instead of having to go to another channel? It makes it easier to follow along.
I just started to watch your channel. I love watching all you make. I use to belong to a natural food group which I loved. Even exchanged recipes. I use to make my own graham crackers. So much better in making for desserts like cheese cake. But moved and they do not have a group. Glad I learned a lot before, but family gone now so I do not cook as much. Love to hear people still cook naturaly. No maybe I will make some soda crackers..never done that, but with the shortage in the stores I just might. Thank you and God Bless. Bonnie H in Michigan 😉👍
You are a delight! I've been on a baking journey making all sorts of homemade breads. I'm aiming to not buy any bread at the store, it always tastes so wonderful fresh. My next venture is crackers and I'm very excited to try these. Thank you so much for the recipes!
These look so good. I just bought the regular club crackers at the store yesterday, one day to soon. Anyway, I'm going to make your crackers too. I have everything to make all three, even dried cranberries and pistachios. I will be having family for Christmas and we always have a cheese and cracker plate. These will be nice on the platter. Of course I will have to sample them before hand to make sure they are perfect. Not sure how many I will have to sample.😉😜🍪🍪🍪
Hi Charlotte, I am so happy to hear this. The Herb Crackers were my favorite. So tasty all on their own!! And I think the fruit and nut ones will be great with blue cheese. And the cheese crackers will be perfect with some slice salami! Yum!! Love, Mary
I just bought a box of cheese crackers to have with my homemade Hummus and thought to myself, maybe I can make crackers myself and this is how I found this recipe of yours Ma'am. Thanks very much.
Is it possible to freeze the dough to bake later? I am making a cheese and cracker tray this year and it would be so fun to bring homemade crackers! Imagine how pretty these would be packaged up as a Christmas gift!
I love your sweet voice and your kind heart ❤ Your recipes help me so much these days. I love crackers and I wanted a healthier tasty version and I found your video. Thank you❤
This just seems too easy, why haven't I been making my own crackers? So, maybe 1 good thing will come out of this orchestrated food shortage. THX so much for this.
I’m going to try this with my favorite cheese. It is a smoked white cheddar and I can’t get enough of it. This is really good to know given the upcoming food shortages. Thanks, Mary!
I can't wait to try these! I think the fruit and nut will be awesome. I used to be able to buy similar crackers at Gordon's and they do not sell them anymore. The thought of making my own and modifying the fruit and nut combinations should keep me out of trouble! Thank-you!
Hello Mary! Thank you for the lovely recipes. I've been wanting to try making my own crackers so this was perfect! Do you think I could incorporate some of my sourdough starter discard into these? Are there any adjustments I should make? I'm always looking for new ways to use the discard. Additionally, I wanted to let you know there's an issue with the cracker recipe on your website. Under the herbed crackers, the notes you have for butter and cream seem like they're supposed to be for different items :) hope you're having a lovely advent, God bless you Mary
Hi Allie, Thank you so much for letting me know. Sometimes my "recipe maker" plug-in doesn't always line things up for me the right way!! Ugh!! LOL!! But it should all be fixed now. As to the sourdough discard - that is so funny that you asked! I am experimenting with that right now!! I'll keep you posted. Love, Mary
I use 1 cup sourdough discard, one cup flour, 1/4 cup soft butter, 1 tsp salt and mix together. I roll out the dough nice and thin, then cut it into whatever shapes, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, rosemary or Parmesan, and bake at 375 for about 15 minutes or so.
These look so easy can't wait to try them I'm wondering if I could cut down on the salt maybe to 1/2 tsp. Hubby is on a very restricted sodium intake. We don't usually have crackers for that reason,having a option to make them myself would be awesome. Happy Holidays!
Thank you for another great recipe and videos! I made the wheat crackers yesterday and I substituted 2 T of beetroot powder for the sugar (I am sugar free) and used soft avocado for half of the butter and they came out delicious! Next time I am going to use all avocado to lower the calories and have more avocado in my diet (I eat butter on other things like some veggies) I served them with blueberry goat cheese and oh they were to die for! Thank you! Next I will be trying the cheese ones....
Mary, your videos are so informative and well done. Thank you! It seems that the only food shopping you must do is for ingredients. Your family must love your food...I certainly do. I want to make these vegan, How much EVOO should I use?
Hi Joanne, Thank you so much for the kind words! Hmmm...that is a great question. I have not tried making these with oil of any kind. I would try starting with maybe 2 tablespoons of EVOO and see if the dough comes together like wet sand - as to what it looked like when I worked in the butter. Add more oil - a teaspoon at a time - until your dough has the right appearance. Keep me posted. Love, Mary
These look so yummy!!! Going to give them a try. I have a question about storage. In the past when I make homemade crackers they do not store well. Would you mind sharing how to store so that they remain crisp and crunchy. Thank you, Mary. You are such an inspiration.
Hi Mary! I love the method you show here, so much easier than rolling out the dough. This is the perfect time of year for this recipe, we use lots of crackers for cheese plates etc. through the holidays. Thanks for sharing!
You can use a piece of untaxed dental floss too cut the crackers and it works for cheese slices too. Grandmother taught use all how too stretch a log of cheese out for the month.
These sound amazing! And I already have most of what I need, just don't have cream (I rarely buy it unless I need it for a recipe). Edit: Also, the second batch of the Fire Cider Tonic I made turned out stronger and much more fizzy than the first batch. I actually prefer the second batch, though I dilute it more. One question, though: should I save the sediment from the bottom of my jar for my next batch? I plan to drink it year round, since I know where to get quality jarred horseradish that doesn't have the cream, like you said. (Now I'm thinking about it, maybe since I used better horseradish that is part of why the second is stronger?)
long time watcher, first time commenting. anyways, can't wait to make these crackers. I have a wood cutting board with built in wire cutter for cutting cheese, I wonder if I could cut the dough with it, I might be able to make them thinner
Impressive! ...crackers that can be made with healthy foods & no chemicals, oils and white flour. "Medical science is only in its infancy, yet it has shown that our natural food is that which grows out of the ground." ~ Baha'i Faith
Mary, those look really good and delicious. I will try them soon. Could I add some rye and oat flour to the herb recipe? Cheese and dried fruit can e hard to find here in the Philippines but I will learn how to make cheese and dry the fruit we do have. Going to try making cottage cheese and pumpernickel pretzels soon - one of my favorite snacks...
Thank you so much for this! I really want to make the cheese crackers. I love the extra toasty Cheez-its, but I want to use whole grains. Yippee!!! Also, have you made any videos about making your own pasta? I just bought the KitchenAid pasta attachment, but I really don't know what to do with it yet... YET! 🙂
Hi Kimmy, glad you’re excited to make the cheese crackers. I haven’t made a video about making homemade pasta yet. Great idea. I’ll add it to the list. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
I’m going to try Seeded or Herbed Cheese Crackers! How much grain to start with to make the 2c called for in the cracker recipe? I will use one or a combo of all 3 grains to make the flour: Soft (“pastry”) whole wheat Rye Barley I know fresh ground measures differently than stale preground flour. TY!

Recipe for crackers
I think crackers are no so healthy , cream sugar and butter.

Believe it or not us nice people are out there lol
She brought heaven to earth
Cranberry crackers served with warm brie! What about dill + pepper crackers served with smoked salmon?
This is easier than getting dressed in all your winter gear, thawing out the car, shovelling snow to get to the store and spending unbelievable prices for custom crackers. Thanks so much.
Wonderful combinations!! Love, Mary
Can't wait to try it. My kids were mesmerized with this video and the prospect of making crackers together.
Oh Elizabeth! I am so happy to hear this!! Hope y'all have fun together. Love, Mary
Just made 3 batches of these. They're delicious! Thanks Mary!
These are fabulous! I used sun-dried tomatoes and Mediterranean olives chopped fine with some Italian herbs. They were absolutely delicious. Thank you Mary!

Thank you Mary, I never would have thought crackers are easy to make the flavor wanted.
Hi Mary! 🏵
Here is my adapted recipe for sesame garlic crackers. It made about 50.
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese
2 tsp garlic salt
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
1 Tbsp flax seeds
1 stick butter
1/2 cup whole milk
Pink sea salt for sprinkling
I used your method, with an 8" log.
They are quite tasty! I am going to serve them with cheese and our customary Sunday evening green salad after church. Thank you so much!

Would you happen to have a recipe for a Ritz knock off?
These sound delicious
I don't but that is a great idea. I will have to work on that! Love, Mary
super video - and those little logs are the cutest things going! Thanks sooo much!
Thank you sweet Mary, thank you. From AK❤
Didn't know it was so easy. Thanks Mary.
You are so welcome!
I made the cheese crackers with the mustard powder and my family loved them. All I had was all purpose flour and it took extra cream instead of less. It kept crumbling on me so my slices were a little thicker and took longer to bake, but they were wonderful. Thanks again, Mary!
Hi Jim, So glad your family enjoyed them! And happy to you figured out how much cream it needed. The conditions in everyone's kitchen are different and the weather outside plays a roll as well so there are always variables...so I'm happy you found what worked in your kitchen. Love, Mary
Mary i am so going to make these!! I think homemade would be so much tastier and cheaper than buying these in the store - especially in Australia where we don't have a big choice of crackers and they are super expensive!
Thank you Mary. I’ve been wanting to try making crackers & your video has such clear instructions & easy method that I really think I can do it.
Hi Teresa, Glad it was helpful! Love, Mary
Wow- what an awesome video, I'm getting so hungry watching, I wish you could pass the crackers through my phone!! Good bless you! 😄💝🌺💜💐💚🌷
Hello and thanks so much for your useful video Marry. This is wwhat’s I am looking for,🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hi Mary, you are amazing! I love your video very explanatory!
These are basically very thin little pie crusts, so they are fragile unlike many commercial crackers. I may try cooking them an extra minute the next time. I’m also going to try using a portion of buckwheat flour and/or almond flour to reduce the gluten. They work for me because I don’t want to eat processed foods and all the poisons they contain AND they are so easy. Another winner, Mary. Thank you.
Hi Mary, thanks so much for this recipe. I was wondering if you could start putting the ingredients below your show instead of having to go to another channel? It makes it easier to follow along.
Such a sweet voice💚
Hi Katie, Thank you so much for the kind words!! Love, Mary
Mary, can you make a Melba toast cracker like they serve in the packages? Or rye brown toast crackers?
I just started to watch your channel. I love watching all you make. I use to belong to a natural food group which I loved. Even exchanged recipes. I use to make my own graham crackers.

Hi Lisa! Wonderful!! Hope you enjoy!! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest the fruit and nut will be awsome... to buy them they are like 4$ for a tiny box!!!!
These look so good. I just bought the regular club crackers at the store yesterday, one day to soon. Anyway, I'm going to make your crackers too.

Thanks very much.
Looks marvelous!
Hello... I love to watch your videos. Definitely want to bake these crackers..
Thank you for sharing your recipe 😊
Wonderful! Glad you like the recipe idea! Love, Mary
Nice, thank you!
These look really good may try these and hope my son and husband will eat them as they don't like healthy food much
Hi Susan, Hope they like them!! Love, Mary
Just don't tell them they're better for you, Susan!
Is it possible to freeze the dough to bake later? I am making a cheese and cracker tray this year and it would be so fun to bring homemade crackers!
Imagine how pretty these would be packaged up as a Christmas gift!
Can’t wait to go home and bake my crackers I made the dough this morning of dill chive and I’m going to roll in fresh rosemary!
I just made the ones with cheddar cheese! They are so yummy! You are right, I won't buy crackers again and they were so easy. Thank you!
I love your sweet voice and your kind heart ❤ Your recipes help me so much these days. I love crackers and I wanted a healthier tasty version and I found your video. Thank you❤
This just seems too easy, why haven't I been making my own crackers? So, maybe 1 good thing will come out of this orchestrated food shortage. THX so much for this.
Oh my! I think im going to adapt my sourdough honey wheat crackers to try some of these flavors and the slice and bake method!
Hi Kate, That sounds great! Love, Mary
I’m going to try this with my favorite cheese. It is a smoked white cheddar and I can’t get enough of it.
This is really good to know given the upcoming food shortages. Thanks, Mary!
Wonderful & so duoable. Love this over store bought with additives & preservative. So happy Ifound you . Such a healthy snack !
I really like your show. These crackers look delicious and now I want to make them myself. Thank you!
I can't wait to try these! I think the fruit and nut will be awesome. I used to be able to buy similar crackers at Gordon's and they do not sell them anymore. The thought of making my own and modifying the fruit and nut combinations should keep me out of trouble! Thank-you!
Thank you! This is a game changer. I'm going to try to cut the crackers thin with a mandolin.
Thank you for the recipes...can't wait to try...God Bless
Thank you so much Mary your recipe s are easy to follow watching from Zimbabwe 🙏🙏🙏 God bless you
Hello Mary! Thank you for the lovely recipes. I've been wanting to try making my own crackers so this was perfect! Do you think I could incorporate some of my sourdough starter discard into these? Are there any adjustments I should make? I'm always looking for new ways to use the discard.
Additionally, I wanted to let you know there's an issue with the cracker recipe on your website. Under the herbed crackers, the notes you have for butter and cream seem like they're supposed to be for different items :) hope you're having a lovely advent, God bless you Mary
Hi Allie, Thank you so much for letting me know. Sometimes my "recipe maker" plug-in doesn't always line things up for me the right way!! Ugh!! LOL!! But it should all be fixed now. As to the sourdough discard - that is so funny that you asked! I am experimenting with that right now!! I'll keep you posted. Love, Mary
I use 1 cup sourdough discard, one cup flour, 1/4 cup soft butter, 1 tsp salt and mix together. I roll out the dough nice and thin, then cut it into whatever shapes, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, rosemary or Parmesan, and bake at 375 for about 15 minutes or so.
These look so easy can't wait to try them
I'm wondering if I could cut down on the salt maybe to 1/2 tsp.
Hubby is on a very restricted sodium intake. We don't usually have crackers for that reason,having a option to make them myself would be awesome.
Happy Holidays!
Hi Donna, Definitely - you can cut way back on the salt. Love, Mary
Love this! I might try to use my mandoline slicer to get really thin crackers--wish me luck!
Thank you for sharing mary. Have a wonderful day.😊
❤ I wonder if a cheese slicer would work in cutting the cracker to more uniform sized slices
Excellent. Learning so much from your channel. So wonderful. TY
Just a question, do these store well and if so, what is the best method? Absolutely love your channel!
Thank you for another great recipe and videos! I made the wheat crackers yesterday and I substituted 2 T of beetroot powder for the sugar (I am sugar free) and used soft avocado for half of the butter and they came out delicious! Next time I am going to use all avocado to lower the calories and have more avocado in my diet (I eat butter on other things like some veggies) I served them with blueberry goat cheese and oh they were to die for! Thank you! Next I will be trying the cheese ones....
oh yummy...thanks Mary for sharing...these.are.great!
This is fantastic !!
I am definitely making this
Mary, your videos are so informative and well done. Thank you! It seems that the only food shopping you must do is for ingredients. Your family must love your food...I certainly do. I want to make these vegan, How much EVOO should I use?
Hi Joanne, Thank you so much for the kind words! Hmmm...that is a great question. I have not tried making these with oil of any kind. I would try starting with maybe 2 tablespoons of EVOO and see if the dough comes together like wet sand - as to what it looked like when I worked in the butter. Add more oil - a teaspoon at a time - until your dough has the right appearance. Keep me posted. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Thanks! It will be one of my weekend recipes.
Great idea! I bet these are great with some cheese and sausages. God bless all here!
Oh yes!
Beautiful crackers
These look so yummy!!! Going to give them a try. I have a question about storage. In the past when I make homemade crackers they do not store well. Would you mind sharing how to store so that they remain crisp and crunchy. Thank you, Mary. You are such an inspiration.

I'm on a low-carb diet. Curious as to the carb count on 1 serving. 1 serving = how many crackers?
Hi Mary! I love the method you show here, so much easier than rolling out the dough. This is the perfect time of year for this recipe, we use lots of crackers for cheese plates etc. through the holidays. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Denise, Hope you enjoy! Love, Mary
You can use a piece of untaxed dental floss too cut the crackers and it works for cheese slices too. Grandmother taught use all how too stretch a log of cheese out for the month.
Thank you this is just what i was looking for
Merci beaucoup. Une excellente professeur.
Merci beaucoup to you for the kind words!! Love, Mary
These look so wonderful!
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi thanks for the recipe, can you use almond flour? I would like to stay away from whole grain or white flour.
Can u make there with almond flour?
Thank you so much! What a great recipe!
You are too cute. I’m tired of processed food. I can’t wait to try this. Thank you very much.
Ohhh, I'm gonna make these! Thanks, Mary.
Could you use inulin instead of sugar which would sweeten and add prebiotic as well
Hi Mary, I am totally trying this. It looks like a lot of fun.
Thanks sweet Mary I love crackers.
Wonderful!
These sound amazing! And I already have most of what I need, just don't have cream (I rarely buy it unless I need it for a recipe).
Edit: Also, the second batch of the Fire Cider Tonic I made turned out stronger and much more fizzy than the first batch. I actually prefer the second batch, though I dilute it more. One question, though: should I save the sediment from the bottom of my jar for my next batch? I plan to drink it year round, since I know where to get quality jarred horseradish that doesn't have the cream, like you said. (Now I'm thinking about it, maybe since I used better horseradish that is part of why the second is stronger?)
Hi Catherine, In a pinch you can use half and half or milk. Water are juice will also work, it just makes them a touch less "rich". Love, Mary
long time watcher, first time commenting. anyways, can't wait to make these crackers. I have a wood cutting board with built in wire cutter for cutting cheese, I wonder if I could cut the dough with it, I might be able to make them thinner
Sounds great! So glad you're here!! Love, Mary
Awesome idea 👍👌🤩😋👍👌👌👍😋🤩✌️👏🥰😁🤤❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💜💜💝💝♥️💕🌹🌹🌹🌹 love and GOD bless you too ☺️😀❤️🤗
Impressive! ...crackers that can be made with healthy foods & no chemicals, oils and white flour. "Medical science is only in its infancy, yet it has shown that our natural food is that which grows out of the ground." ~ Baha'i Faith
What a great snack they would make and it looks so easy to make. I enjoyed watching and learning.
Thanks for watching! You'll love these!! The herb crackers are my favorite for just plain snacking! Love, Mary
Mary can you create a recipe to make crackers and incorporate kale in them? I’ve purchased them but I’m afraid to attempt to try to make them
I’d love to see a sourdough version of your slice and bake crackers!!
Mary, those look really good and delicious. I will try them soon. Could I add some rye and oat flour to the herb recipe? Cheese and dried fruit can e hard to find here in the Philippines but I will learn how to make cheese and dry the fruit we do have.
Going to try making cottage cheese and pumpernickel pretzels soon - one of my favorite snacks...
Yes, absolutely!
Now, this is what im talking about!
Hello Mary, I really like this video. Can I make these crackers vegan?
Crackers demystified! Thanks Mary. Before freezing could I roll this out and cut with a biscuit cutter, then freeze them?
C
Could use a mandoline to slice the crackers?
Hi Lynn, I think that's a great idea. Love, Mary
Thank you!
Hi Chi, You're SO welcome! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest Do you have any tips on how to make it a chocolate cracker for kids? Please and thank you.
Just made some (cheese). Easy and tasty. Thanks!
Thank you for this lovely recipes. I cannot wait to try them.
Hope you enjoy!
I like this!!! I can make smaller crackers making smaller rolls (less freezing time?) Wondering if they can be rolled and cut....
Definitely!
Thank you so much for this! I really want to make the cheese crackers. I love the extra toasty Cheez-its, but I want to use whole grains. Yippee!!!
Also, have you made any videos about making your own pasta? I just bought the KitchenAid pasta attachment, but I really don't know what to do with it yet... YET! 🙂
Hi Kimmy, glad you’re excited to make the cheese crackers. I haven’t made a video about making homemade pasta yet. Great idea. I’ll add it to the list. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Could u put milk kefir in the dough and let it ferment and then put it in the refrigerator to firm up?
I’m going to try Seeded or Herbed Cheese Crackers! How much grain to start with to make the 2c called for in the cracker recipe?
I will use one or a combo of all 3 grains to make the flour:
Soft (“pastry”) whole wheat
Rye
Barley
I know fresh ground measures differently than stale preground flour.
TY!
How much kosher salt do u substitute for fine sea salt? I can't wait to try these. Yummm!!!
H Annie, You can use about 3/4 of a teaspoon of kosher salt. Love, Mary
Mary have ever used buckwheat and if so how do you use it
Wonder crackers!
