Ingredients (for 30 pieces):
1 ½ kg of self-raising flour
300 gr. of butter, cut in small cubes (preferably cow's milk)
6 eggs, lightly beaten
1 egg yolk, thinned out with some water
about 1 cup of water
fresh rosemary, finely chopped
pinch of salt

Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Generously brush with some butter a spacious baking tray.

Sift the flour in a large bowl. Add the butter and rub with your fingers until you have a sand-like grains mixture.

Add in the bowl the eggs and water (enough to form a homogeneous and smooth dough) and knead with your hands.

Using a rolling pin roll thin and oblong dough sheets of  5 X 30cm and transfer on the baking tray.

Brush the crackers with the egg yolk mixture and sprinkle on top with the rosemary.

Put in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until they are crispy and lightly browned.
