A savory classic for tea time, these cookies are made by working cheddar-style kaşar cheese and butter into flour and kneading in red pepper flakes and hot paprika. Common in the Kayseri region, they have a firm texture that travels well and holds up without crumbling.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Knead the dough

15 min

Mix the butter, grated kaşar cheese and egg, then add the flour, red pepper flakes, hot paprika, salt and baking powder and knead for 15 minutes until smooth.

2

Chill the dough

40 min

Wrap the dough in cling film and chill in the fridge for 40 minutes.

3

Shape

15 min

Divide the dough into small pieces and shape into thin logs or rings, then sprinkle with nigella seed.

4

Bake

20 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for 20 minutes, until the edges take on a light color.

Reminder

Shape the dough without chilling it and it can spread thin while baking — the 40-minute rest keeps the cookies thick. Allergens: contains gluten (flour), milk and dairy (butter, kaşar cheese) and egg.

Hamuru dinlendirmeden direkt şekillendirdim çünkü acelem vardı, fırında kurabiyeler tamamen yayılıp birbirine yapıştı, tek parça kocaman bir şey çıktı. Tarifte 40 dakika dinlendirme yazıyor, okumuştum ama atladım, tamamen kendi hatam.

Başınız sağ olsun, o 40 dakika gerçekten atlanabilecek bir adım değil; tereyağı oda sıcaklığında yoğrulduğu için dinlenmeden fırına girerse eriyip hamuru yayıyor. Bir dahaki sefere hamuru kısa süre bile olsa mutlaka soğutun.
