1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 180C. Place the flour, parmesan, salt, cayenne pepper and butter in the bowl of a food processor and blitz until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Scrape down the sides of the bowl then add 2 egg yolks, the mustard and the seeds. Mix until combined and then shape into a ball.

Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out to about the thickness of a pound coin. Using a 5cm fluted cutter, cut out about 26 rounds and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush each biscuit with a little of the remaining egg yolk and chill in the fridge for an hour.

Bake the shortbreads in batches, cooking for 12 minutes in the middle of the oven.

Allow to cool completely; they will keep for up to 5 days in an airtight container or tin.
