on the tops.

Directions:
-------------
1. Preheat oven to 325 Degrees F.
2. Mix together flour, sesame seeds and salt. Add oil and blend till
mixture resembles coarse meal.
3. Blend in enough water so dough forms into a ball. Divide the dough
in 2 equal portions for rolling.
4. Roll out the dough on floured board to 1/16 inch thick. Cut in two
inch squares. Lay out on cookie tray.
5. Prick each cracker with a fork; brush tops with egg mixture.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cool on a rack. After crackers are cool,
store them in an airtight container.
Note:
-----
This is really a very simple recipe. The only trick is to watch the
timing the first time you make them because each oven is different and
you don't want them to burn. I also admit that we have never had to
find an "airtight container" because they all got gobbled down inside of
two hours.
