SOURDOUGH CRACKERS WITH RYE FLOUR AND BLACK SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450°F.
• Combine the ingredients in a bowl, minus the toppings, and mix together. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it's smooth. If you want the seeds to be well-trapped in the dough, add them during this initial mixing rather than later.
• Roll out the dough to be less than 1/4-inch thick. Do this on a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone mat that fits a half-sheet pan. To get a uniform rectangle, trim the edges and place the pieces inside the dough and re-roll.
• Brush or spritz with additional oil. Sprinkle on the seeds and additional salt, and roll again a few times to press in the toppings.
• Using a pizza cutter or bench knife, cut grooves into the dough, creating a grid with the cracker size of your choice. I made a 9x6 grid for 54 crackers.
• Dock the dough with a fork to prevent big bubbles during baking.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, turning the tray once about 8 minutes in. Remove when the dough at the outer edges begins to brown.
• Let cool for a few minutes and then separate the crackers on the cut lines.
