Cheese and Onion Savoury Biscuits
Another old recipe from the bag of clippings of my sister’s long passed mother in law, from Feock. Very old, falling to bits, the writing just legible. I was immediately intrigued and couldn’t wait to try them. Just wonderful.
Makes 14-16 biscuits but easily doubled. You will need a large baking sheet, buttered. Pre heat your fan oven to 170C
6 oz plain flour
large pinch of cayenne pepper
large pinch of dry mustard powder
Salt - I used sea salt.
4 oz butter
2 oz finely grated mature cheddar
a heaped teaspoonful dried onion granules [found beside the spices, in a tub]
3 tablespoonfuls milk
Sift the flour, pepper, mustard and salt into a mixing bowl, then rub the slightly softened butter into the dry ingredients. Stir in the cheese and onion, then bind the ingredients together with the milk, kneading it to form a soft dough.
Roll out the dough to just a bit thicker than a £1 coin and cut your preferred biscuit shapes.
Place them on a baking tray, brush gently with a little milk and bake in your moderately hot oven for around 20 minutes.
How scrumptious!!
Note: I also used a little white pepper pepper. Will happily keep for two or three days in an airtight container.
