Updated on Dec 16, 2015

I love these little bites of salty goodness. You can choose a lot of different cheeses; however, since I use Parmigiano-Reggiano, they serve as a perfect compliment to a nice evening by the fire with a bottle of wine, and good friends. This is not a new recipe... People have been making these for a lot of years. The main difference is the cheese you choose to use, and the spices you add. I like mine a bit on the spicy side. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make awesome cheese crisps for wine

  • Step 1
    PREP/PREPARE
  • Step 2
    Gather and prep your ingredients.
  • Step 3
    Place all the ingredients in a small bowl, and thoroughly mix.
  • Step 4
    Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat oven to 380f (195c).
  • Step 5
    Put a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Add tablespoons of the mixture to the baking sheet, and spread out.
  • Step 6
    Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Step 7
    Chef's Tip: When they come out of the oven, they should still be slightly flexible. If they are completely dry, then you baked them too long.
  • Step 8
    Remove from oven, and allow to completely cool on the parchment paper.
  • Step 9
    Carefully release from the parchment paper with a spatula.
  • Step 10
    Chef's Note: Watch these crisps very carefully... when they begin to turn golden (not brown), take them out of the oven. I don't care if it's 5 minutes or 3 days. If you overcook them they will taste bitter... Golden NOT brown is the way to go.
  • Step 11
    PLATE/PRESENT
  • Step 12

  • Step 13
    Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
