But since historians say cheese has been made since 8000 B.C. and crackers only date back to 1792, it\u2019s a relatively new match. Looking to make a shelf-stable food for sailors, entrepreneur John Pearson of Newburyport, Massachusetts, combined a lot of flour with a little water and baked the mixture until it was hard. He sold his inexpensive, non-perishable product as \u201cPearson\u2019s Pilot Bread.\u201d As it became a staple on most sea-faring vessels, it was colloquially called sea biscuit or hardtack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Josiah Bent, another enterprising Massachusetts baker, also a retired sea captain, coined the term \u201ccracker\u201d circa 1800 when he left his biscuits in a brick oven until they burned and produced a crackling sound. Bent built a business on supplying hardtack to the Union troops fighting in the Civil War. He went on to sell his cracker business to the entity that became Nabisco, whose current parent company, Mondel z International (formerly Kraft), is a major player in the $21 billion worldwide biscuit and cracker market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you don\u2019t have to buy into all of that. If you\u2019ve got 30 minutes and basic ingredients in your kitchen\u2014flour, water, oil, and salt\u2014you can make your own crackers. Once you get the hang of it and the habit of making crackers into your routine, your recipe can evolve to include anything from heritage grain flours and flavorful liquids like buttermilk to any kind of seeded topping that strikes your fancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em><a href=\"https:\/\/burfordbooks.com\/product\/the-cracker-book\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Cracker Book<\/a> <\/em>(Burford Books, 2012), author Lee E. Cart says the key to making crackers successfully lies in keeping basic ingredient ratios constant. You need 11\u20444 cups flour, 4 tablespoons water, 2 tablespoons oil, and 1\u20442 teaspoon salt to make a soft, pliable dough. Cart recommends rolling the dough to an 1\u20448-inch thickness for the crispiest crackers, but if you want them thicker, simply adjust the baking time accordingly. Regardless of their thickness, all crackers must be docked several times with the tines of a fork. Failing to do so will results in crackers with tops bloated by air bubbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cart says that, like commercial crackers, homemade ones need to be stored in airtight containers. She suggests labeling those containers clearly\u2014once you start making your own crackers, you\u2019ll be hooked and storing several varieties at once.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-43970\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"43970\" data-servings=\"28\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-chic\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/CheesePlus2022_CanDo_Crackers_PC-Christine-Burns-Rudalevige-500x500.png\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"Can Do Crackers\" srcset=\"https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/CheesePlus2022_CanDo_Crackers_PC-Christine-Burns-Rudalevige-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/culturecheesemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/CheesePlus2022_CanDo_Crackers_PC-Christine-Burns-Rudalevige-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Buttermilk and Rye Crackers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">DIY crackers are easy and customizable.
