FIDDLESTICKS JULIE'S RYE CRISPBREAD RECIPE
I found this in a search for a crispbread recipe to duplicate Kavli Crispy Onion crispbread. As of today (3/11/05), I've not made it, but I'll be rectifying that very soon! This is not my recipe - I found it at a British "downsizing" forum, and all the credit goes to the wonderful Julie!

Steps:
- Rub the margarine in to the flour and stir in the herbs and salt.
- Stir in the water and mix to a firm dough.
- Divide the dough in to two halves.
- Knead each half lightly on a floured surface.
- Roll each half out thinly in to about a 9" square.
- Thinly is the operative word, or they're rather chewy.
- Cut in to 3" squares and put on to a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Prick each square well to prevent it from rising and bubbling during baking.
- Bake at 200°c (Approx 390°F) for 10 to 15 minutes or until the edges just begin to colour, but do not let them brown.
- Cool slightly on the baking sheet then transfer to wire racks.
- For Vegan use only a Vegan [non dairy] margarine and only the water.
FINNISH RYE CRISPBREAD
Traditionally, the rounds were hung (hence the purpose of the whole in the centre). These round, flat crispbreads with a hole in the centre, are traditionally used to make open-faced sandwiches topped with butter, thinly sliced cucumber, and deli meats. Or, as a treat, top with smoked or pickled fish such as herring or salmon. It is also served with butter spread on top alongside hot soup.

Steps:
- Pour warm water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in yeast until dissolved. Season with salt. Gradually mix in 4 1/2 cups of the flour. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Sprinkle a clean, flat work surface with the remaining 1/2 cup flour; turn the dough onto the floured surface. Divide evenly into 4 balls. The flour from your work surface is to keep the dough from becoming sticky, but be careful not to work the extra flour into the balls of dough.
- Roll out each ball until 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick and about 10 to 12 inches in diameter. Very carefully, use a thin, flat object to transfer each round to baking sheets that have been greased and well-sprinkled with flour. Cut a 2-inch hole in the center of each round. A cookie cutter generally will do the trick. Prick all over with a fork.
- Keep rounds in a warm place to rise for about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Bake rounds in the preheated oven until firm to the touch, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool for 1 hour. The rounds will not be crisp yet.
- Let the cooled rounds dry on racks in a cool, dry place for 8 hours, or overnight. Avoid humidity.
