List of Ingredients




Saltine crackers
Melted butter or olive oil
Sesame Seeds
Dark Sesame Seeds
Parsley, chopped


Recipe



Brush saltines with melted butter or olive oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, dark sesame seeds and chopped parsley. Bake in a medium oven (350 degrees F.) for 5-7 minutes or until toasty.

MY NOTES: Paula didn't mention it, but some saltines will bake faster than others. It really depends on how humid it is, whether you use butter (which contains some water) or just oil and what brand of saltines you're using. So the cooking time will vary. It will also vary depending on the type of oven being used - i.e. electric, gas or convection. 4 minutes is a gracious plenty in a convection oven.

Another variation I've used myself uses herb infused olive oil topped with cracked black pepper, chives, finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes and Romano cheese. (I like it sharp, but Parmesan would work equally well and be a bit smoother.)
