2. Form a soft dough. It needs to be firm but add more water if its too dry, a few drops at a time.
3. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. This is necessary for the dough to relax so it can be stretched.
4. Preheat the oven to 425ºF / 220ºC. Line baking sheets with Parchment paper.
5. Turn out the dough onto countertop with lightly dusted flour.
5. Roll to small circle and sprinkle the seeds, roll it again to as thin as possible. Cut pieces of dough to you desired size you need.
6. Brush with Olive oil. Slightly here and there sprinkle with Seasalt and rosemary mixture.
7. Place the cut pieces on the sheets.
8. Bake for about 6 or 7 minutes, until blistered, golden and dry.
9. Remove from baking sheet and let cool on wire rack.
Note:
Number of crackers depends on the size you cut. This yields a lot, may be you half the recipe and try for yourself.
