    List of Ingredients




    2 c All-purpose flour
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Cracked pepper or coarsely
    Ground pepper
    2 tb (1/4 stick) butter or
    Margarine, softened
    3/4 c Plus 1 Tablespoon V-8 juice
    1/4 ts Hot pepper sauce, such as
    Tabasco

    Recipe



    20 to 25 minutes Preheat the oven to 325~F.


    Stir together the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl or in the food processor.

    Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.

    In a separate bowl, mix the V-8 and the hot pepper sauce.
    Add the V-8 mixture to the flour mixture and blend to form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball.
    Divide into 2 equal portions for rolling.

    On a floured surface or pastry cloth, roll thin, 1/16 to 1/8 inch thick.

    With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 2-inch squares and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.

    Prick each square 2 or 3 times with the tines of a fork.

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, turning over after 10 minutes.
    Cool on a rack.
    Yield: 70-7 5.

    VARIATIONS: You can substitute or combine tomato juice and other vegetable juices with the V- 8. For more spice, increase the hot pepper sauce or add celery seed, cayenne, or your favorite herb. Substituting 2/3 cup of wheat or oat bran for the same amount of flour will increases the healthfulness of these crackers.
