Wait - roll into strips and form? Form into what? Is there a special way to do that? The strips thing threw me off…so I can’t use a regular biscuit cutter?
I’m going to “dude” you, I’m afraid, as in “Dude, don’t leave me hangin’.”
LOL
You can form them into anything you want. We usually make them into little lambda symbols (for no apparent reason).
I guess you could use a biscuit cutter. Why not?
We are looking for a cracker or bite sized biscuit to offer with our wine when our customers come in for a complimentary tasting.
We will welcome all ideas.
Thank you,
