For home cooks and hosts looking for something crisp and simple to serve with cheese, dips and drinks, these Savoury Olive Oil Crackers are a traditional Galician pantry staple. Round, crunchy and gently flavoured with extra virgin olive oil and sea salt, they’re the kind of cracker that lets whatever you put on top do the talking.
Their story comes from Galicia's seafaring past, when local bakeries made dry biscuits with very little water so they could survive long voyages at sea. The tradition continues today, although now they're made primarily because they taste so good - crisp, savoury and incredibly versatile.
Pile them onto a cheeseboard, serve alongside tinned fish, use them for dips and spreads or simply put a bowl out with olives when friends come over. An easy cupboard staple for those moments when drinks somehow turn into dinner.
