Set aside. In a small bowl mix water, malt syrup and shortening. Stir to blend then add to flour mixture. Mix until well blended then knead for about 4 minutes until the dough is soft and elastic. Add more flour if needed. Put the dough into a butted bowl, flip over to coat all sides of the dough, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 18 hours. The longer the better. Roll the dough into a 18\u2033 x 6\u2033 rectangle which is 1\/16\u2033 thick. Fold the dough from the short ends, brushing off excess flour, to make 3 layers. Roll again to 1\/16\u2033 thickness. Cut into crackers, place on a greased cookie sheet and poke holes in the crackers to prevent them from puffing up. Sprinkle with salt if desired. Bake at 425 for 10-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the crackers with melted butter, sprinkle with salt if desired, then place crackers on a rack to cool.<\/p>\n<p>Variations: For sesame-onion crackers, add to the dough 4 tsp. each sesame seeds and grated onion. For an herb cracker, 4 tsp. each chopped fresh parsley and chives and 1\/2 tsp. dried dillweed; also try 4 tsp. caraway seeds or 2 tsp. poppy seeds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 1\/2 cups bread or all-purpose flour (I used White Lily all purpose flour) 2 1\/4 tsp. yeast 1\/4 tsp. salt, plus extra for sprinkling 1\/4 tsp. baking soda 1\/4 tsp. cream of tartar 2\/3 cup hot water (120 \u2013 &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/2015\/03\/05\/soda-crackers-from-bernard-clayton\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,7],"tags":[516,447,448,344,446,427],"class_list":["post-4207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-appetizers","category-recipes","tag-appetizers","tag-baking-soda","tag-cream-of-tartar","tag-flour","tag-salt","tag-yeast"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4207"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4207\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4210,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4207\/revisions\/4210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
