Main ingredient: anchovy oil

Servings:4quantities adjust to match

Ingredients

  • ½ cup anchovy oil (from 2–3 large jars or tins of anchovies)
  • ½ cup (or more) vegetable oil
  • 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. freshly ground pepper; plus more (optional)
  • 8 oz. saltines (about 2 sleeves)
  • ¼ cup finely grated Parmesan; plus more for serving (optional)

Method

  1. Fork the anchovy oil, vegetable oil, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, garlic powder and ground pepper together in a large resealable bag, add the saltines and the finely grated Parmesan, seal the bag and turn the Caesar crackers gently until the oil coats them.
  2. Leave the saltines in the bag at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or chill the Caesar fire crackers for up to 12 hours, turning the bag several times so the seasoning redistributes.
  3. Heat the oven to 250°F, spread the marinated saltines in a single layer over two parchment-lined baking sheets, and bake the Caesar fire crackers for 15 to 23 minutes, swapping the sheets halfway, until golden.
  4. Cool the Caesar fire crackers on their sheets for at least 5 minutes, then finish the crackers with extra ground pepper and Parmesan before serving them.
