steps
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a food processor, pulse together cheese, flour, and ½ teaspoon salt until a cornmeal consistency is reached. Add butter and pulse until well blended. Add pimentos and puree until a dough ball forms. Wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled.
- Lightly flour and roll out dough on a floured surface to about ⅛-inch thick. Cut into strips that are ¼-inch wide and 10-to-12-inches long. Place strips onto a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven, cool slightly on a rack, and season with more salt.
