Parmesan Wafers

Parmesan Wafers

I am a complete sucker for beautiful decorations and especially wafers, shards or rustic shapes. What I also love is if a decoration only takes five minutes to make like these parmesan wafers do. They couldn’t be easier – simply take a piece of parmesan cheese and finely grate it on to a preheated frying pan. In just a few moment the tīhi (cheese) begins to set in a beautiful web, cook it for a few minutes or so more and pull it off as one big sheet. Then, break it in to delicate wafers that finish off any savoury treat, perfect for my savoury muffins.
