Directions

1. Mix the flour, Parmesan cheese, poppy seeds, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the softened butter and mix with your fingers to obtain a sandy texture.
2. Add the egg and, if necessary, a little water to make the dough easier to knead.
3. Knead a bit, but not too much. Adjust with flour if it’s too sticky.
4. Divide the dough in half, make rolls wrapped with cellophane.
5. Keep the rolls in the fridge for 1 hour, until the dough hardens.
6. Make slices of a 1/5 inch thick and arrange on a plate. Sprinkle with salt.
7. Bake for fifteen minutes at 360°f (180°c). The edges should be lightly colored.
