I want to use them for something akin to what you'd put on snack trays. I'm thinking of using them to dip into guacamole or hummus or some type of dip. Maybe putting some type of tahini spread on them with tomato and cilantro or crushed nuts.
And if anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions. But I still don't know what those little toast round things are actually called, and I do not want to use anything like Triscuits or pits chips or crackers.

Melba toast

Melba toast is a dry, crisp and thinly sliced toast, often served with soup and salad or topped with either melted cheese or pâté. It is named after Dame Nellie Melba, the stage name of Australian opera singer Helen Porter Mitchell. Its name is thought to date from 1897, when the singer was very ill and it became a staple of her diet. The toast was created for her by chef and fan Auguste Escoffier, who also created the Peach Melba dessert for her. The hotel proprietor César Ritz supposedly named it in a conversation with Escoffier. Melba toast is made by lightly toasting slices of bread under a grill, on both sides. The resulting toast is then sliced laterally. The thin slices are then returned to the grill with the untoasted sides towards the heat source, resulting in toast half the normal thickness. Thus, it can be described as a twice-baked food (see rusk). Melba toast is also available commercially, and was at one time given to infants who were teething as a hard food substance on which to chew. In France, it is referred to as croûtes en dentelle.

Any of these answers (only one of which is correct) ringing a bell ?

I just realized I wrote "pitz" chips in my original post, and I meant to write "ritz" chips. Pitz chips sounds pretty nasty, don't they? lol Yes guys, thank you. Melba toast is what I was thinking of.    |
