Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

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 and
Diluted with 1 to 2 Tb milk
For brushing the tops

"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
additional Tablespoon of water.

Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured
surface or pastry cloth, roll to 1/16 inch thick. With a sharp knife
or cookie cutter, cut in desired shapes approximately 2 inches
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. Yield: 85-90.
