Parmesan thyme rosé crackers

 

Preheat oven to 450. Combine 1 ½ C. flour, ½ C. grated parmesan cheese, 2 tsp. thyme leaves and 1 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Add ½ C. rosé wine and 2 T. olive oil and use a fork or your hands to mix together until a sticky dough forms. If dough looks dry, add more liquid (either wine or water) until you get a dough ball you can work with. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle, about ⅛-inch thick. Don’t worry about making the perfect shape, just roll the dough until you get to the right thickness. Brush with a little more olive oil (about 1 T.) and sprinkle with more thyme leaves, and 1 tsp. each flaky salt and black pepper. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut into pieces and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly prick each cracker with a fork and bake for 12-15 minutes, until edges are lightly browned. Let cool before serving.

 

Quick chipotle rosé strawberry jam

 

Add 1 pint chopped strawberries, ⅓ C. rosé wine and 3 T. sugar to a saucepan and set over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and then use a wooden spoon to start smashing some of the strawberries and release more liquid. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 15 minutes, stirring/smashing every 5 minutes. Add 1 tsp. chipotle chili powder and let simmer for an additional minute. Remove from heat and let cool before serving. The jam will thicken a bit as it cools.
