FAQs

What type of pastry cutting tool is best? You can use whatever you have at home, whether it is a 7 wheel pastry tool , a ravioli wheel, or even a pizza cutter. My personal preference is the 7 wheel pastry tool because of the speed it allows when it comes time to cut your sourdough cracker squares.

What if my dough is too crumbly? Gluten free sourdough discard cracker dough can have the tendency to be dry depending on the brand of flour you use. If you do find your dough to be a bit crumbly while kneading, simply add some additional filtered water, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough is slightly sticky yet pliable. You will want the dough to form a ball quite easily.

Do I need to use Italian herbs? I prefer to season my sourdough discard crackers with Italian herbs like oregano + thyme. Italian herb crackers pair beautifully with your favorite cheeses or dips. If you want to mix it up a little, you can add spices like paprika or cumin, which would make these gluten free sourdough crackers the perfect pair for low FODMAP carrot + zucchini hummus or this delicious low FODMAP red pepper + walnut dip!
