Cheese Straws

Ingredients

• pastry
• grated cheese or highly seasoned soft cheese

Directions

The book says “a hot oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

1. Roll the pastry thin.

2. Cover with grated cheese or highly seasoned soft cheese.

3. Fold the pastry into thirds and roll it out again into a thin, long sheet.

4. Cut into narrow strips.

5. Bake in a 400°F (200°C) oven until delicately browned.
