INSTRUCTIONS
Heat the oven to 300 degrees.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cayenne in a medium
bowl. Set aside
In a large mixing bowl, use a rubber spatula to mix the cheese,
butter, and Tabasco together until smooth. Gradually add the flour
mixture, working gently, until it is completely incorporated into the
cheese mixture.
Using your hands, roll a portion of the cheese mixture into a log.
Insert the mixture into a cookie press fitted with a ribbon plate.
Press the mixture out onto a Silpat baking mat or a parchment-lined
cookie sheet in long rows, using the entire length of the cookie
sheet. Space the rows about 1/2 inch apart. If you find that the
dough is not holding together well, use your hands to mold the strips
together.
Bake in 300 degree oven for 15 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to
225 degrees, and bake the ribbons until crisp, about 15 minutes.
Remove them from the oven.
Using a pizza wheel or sharp knife, cut the ribbons into 3-inch
strips. Return them to the oven, and bake for an additional 5 minutes
at 225 degrees. (Baking time may vary slightly.) Remove from oven.
Transfer to a rack, and let the ribbons cool completely.
Store in an airtight container. To freeze, wrap the ribbons tightly in
plastic wrap and place in a plastic bag after they are completely
cool.
Makes about 120 three-inch ribbons.
