The rich flavor of perfectly aged cheddar cheese... the teasing tingle of sharp fresh spice... the deliciously crispy texture of a perfectly made cheese straw. Indulgence?
Of course. But once you've experienced it, this indulgence will soon become necessity. Don't say you haven't been warned!
We don’t know who dreamed up the first cheese straw, but we do know when: Before refrigeration, Southern cooks would knead leftover breakfast biscuit dough with cheese and spices, roll out the dough, cut it into thin strips and bake. “Waste not, want not,” was the motto.
And, over generations, as recipes were shared and refined, what began as frugality became the fabulous hors d’oeuvre beloved by Southern hostesses and guests.
This recipe for Traditional Cheddar Cheese Straws is the same heirloom recipe handed down to our Mom by her mother. The perfect combination of luscious aged cheddar cheese and fresh spices, these enticing straws taste like the ultimate indulgence, but there’s never any waste because every last crumb is sure to be savored.
Waste not, want not? Our customers say, “Wait not, want not!”
SOME COMMENTS:
Best cheese straws I've has in a long time, and the price is reasonable. Thanks so much
The most similar to the ones I enjoyed as a boy. Dusty and crumbly, cheesy, spicy warm and proportioned exact as my former homemade faves. I endorse these as my number one pick.
I am a lover of cheese straws. These are excellent, but next time I will order the "hotter" ones. I highly recommend this product.
Love the cheese straws! The best around!!!
