Frequently Asked Questions ( FAQs)

What To Do If The Crackers Are Not Binding Properly?

Add a tablespoon of guar gum while making the dough. It helps the mixture to bind, and the crackers don’t break after baking.

How To Save The Crackers From Burning?

Keep the baking temperature low, and regularly check in between, to ensure the crackers attain the required hardness and don’t get burnt.
