Parmesan Crisp recipe
So, hubby wanted to do a recipe that was a little less carb-ey after the Trash last week (though, we went through that trash really fast, it's so delicious). So this week is a different crispy party or snack food: Parmesan crisps! This is a super easy recipe, and really helps to satisfy the cravings for something crispy when you're on a low-carb or keto diet. The only ingredient is Parmesan cheese (plus any flavouring you may wish to add)! Please note, you do need to start with real Parmesan cheese for this, the powdered stuff that comes in a tube will not work, because it normally includes anti-caking agents that will interfere with the baking process.
Really, you can flavour these however you like. We did end up using a bit too much of the hot pepper in the spicy ones, but these all came out delicious. We also discovered that the pepper we happened to use was very hot indeed and the heat transferred to the other herbs we chopped for the rosemary and chive crisps! This recipe is gluten-free and keto friendly, and so incredibly versatile you can add whatever herbs or spices you like. Make little Garam Masala crisps! Sprinkle some taco seasoning on them! Add some powdered garlic! You can also use other aged dry cheeses like Parmesan, and Grana Padano or Pecorino will work as well.
