These savory cheese twists are slightly salty and are good served with a creamy soup and salad or with a meat entree. Use a stand mixer to make the dough or make the dough by hand. Ingredients:

1/4 cup gruyere cheese, grated |
3 teaspoons marmite or 3 teaspoons vegemite or 3 teaspoons other yeast extract, spread |

1 egg yolk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Mix together flour, mustard powder and salt in a large bowl.
3. Cut in cold butter pieces into the flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal.
4. Mix in the cheese, parsley and marmite/vegemite.
5. Mix in the whole egg until mixture is bound together in a nice dough.
6. Roll out the dough to 1/8th inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
