parmesan wafers
1 ½ cups coarsely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1.
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 350°F. Stir together cheese and flour in a bowl.
Make 4 mounds (about 3 tablespoons each) about 5 inches apart on baking sheet and spread
each mound to form a 4- to 5-inch round.
2.
Bake on a large nonstick baking sheet until golden, about 10 minutes. Cool 2 minutes on baking
sheet on a rack, then carefully transfer each wafer (they are very delicate) with a wide metal
spatula to rack to cool completely. Stir cheese in bowl (to redistribute flour) and make 4 more
wafers in same manner. note: • Wafers can be made 2 days ahead and kept, layered between
sheets of wax paper, in an airtight container at room temperature.
