Rosemary & Parmesan Biscuits
METHOD
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

Step 2:
Process parmesan, butter, flour, polenta, rosemary and paprika in a food processor until combined. Add egg yolk and process until dough just comes together.

Step 3:
Transfer to a lightly floured surface. Gently knead until smooth.

Step 4:
Shape into a 40cm-long, 4cm-diameter log and wrap in baking paper. Place in fridge for 30 minutes to chill.

Step 5:
Use a small sharp knife to cut log into 5mm-thick discs. Place on lined trays.

Step 6:
Decorate biscuits with sesame seeds, poppy seeds and caraway seeds, alternating between seeds and biscuits, creating patterns and shapes as desired.

Step 7:
Bake, swapping trays halfway through cooking, for 12-15 mins or until lightly golden. Set aside on trays to cool.

Note: Serve same day or store for up to five days in an airtight container.
