1/2 ts Salt	1/2 c White wine

Instructions for Orange-Wine Wafers

"A perfectly simple cracker delicately flavored with orange zest and wine, this is an ideal match for a glass of white wine. We prefer to use Chardonnay, but any dry white wine that you may have already opened will work well. 350~F. 15 to 20 minutes Preheat the oven to 350~F. To prepare the zest, lightly grate the outer peel of the oranges against the fine grate of a cheese grater. Use only the colored part of the rind; the underlying white portion is bitter. In a large bowl or in the food processor, combine the flour, orange zest, salt, and baking powder. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. While stirring, add the wine in a slow stream and blend to form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball. On a floured surface or pastry cloth, roll out to a rectangle approximately 1/4 inch thick and position so the long edge runs horizontally in front of you. Fold the left third of the dough over the center third. Likewise, fold the right third over the center. The dough is now in 3 layers with the seam running vertically. Give the dough a quarter turn so the seam now runs horizontally. Roll out the dough again to a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Fold and turn the dough again as in the first step. You are now ready for the final rolling. Roll the dough out somewhat thinner this time, about 1/8 inch thick. With a sharp knife, cut in to 2-inch squares or shapes as desired and place each one on an ungreased baking sheet. Prick each cracker all the way through 2 or 3 times with the tines of a fork. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove to a rack to cool. Yield: 40-50. From Geminis MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
