The Cracker Book: Artisanal Crackers for Every Occasion
By Lee E. Cart
Burford Books - 2012
As is, the recipe's a 3, tweaked a bit it's a 4 and has potential to be a 5. It you like your crackers to be a non-competing carrier for more flavourful toppings, then the recipe may be a 4 for you already, but I prefer a spicier, cheesier cheddar cracker.
I tweaked the recipe by adding a bit of habanero sauce, black pepper, and some Kalustyan's cheddar powder to the recipe, but they still seemed a bit flat. So I sprinkled the last two trays with a bit of onion powder, garlic powder, and a touch of salt
Next time, I'll add the onion powder, garlic powder, and some cayenne directly into the dough, break into my precious freezer stash of Cabot Hunter's seriously sharp cheddar, and sprinkle the crackers with a bit of sea salt before they go into the oven.
They're easy, fast, and oddly satisfying to make.

The Homesick Texan Cookbook
By Lisa Fain
Hyperion - 2011
These are my favourite Tex-Mex black beans. I always double the recipe and try to keep a couple of bags in the freezer at all times, ready for spur-of-the-moment burritos, chili, soups, or sides. They're deeply flavoured, with a rich and spicy bean liquor, adding a layer of flavour to everything you use them in. So much better than dumping in a can of unseasoned black beans!
