Carr's Table Water Cracked Black Pepper Crackers, 125g
The table water biscuit with a warm edge: thin and crisp, with cracked pepper that suits soft cheeses and smoked fish.
Carr's Table Water Cracked Black Pepper Crackers, in brief.
Carr's Table Water Cracked Black Pepper takes the thin, crisp table water biscuit and adds cracked black pepper. The pepper gives each cracker a warm, aromatic lift that works especially well with soft and creamy cheeses.
The biscuit keeps the table water profile on the label data: 7.6g of fat, 0.6g of sugars and 1.5g of salt per 100g. The full ingredient list and allergy advice are printed on the pack.
The table water biscuit is the plainest cheese cracker there is: thin, dry and crisp, with holes docked across the surface so it bakes flat. This version keeps all of that and adds cracked black pepper, which turns a neutral base into one with a little warmth of its own.
Pepper and cheese is an old pairing. A creamy goat's cheese, a fresh Brie or a mild Cheddar all gain from a little heat, and the thin biscuit keeps the pepper in proportion rather than overwhelming the cheese.

Curator’s notes
Read the full write-up
Taste and texture
Expect a crisp, snapping bite and a clean, lightly salted flavour with pepper warmth at the finish. At 7.6g of fat per 100g it is lean, and at 0.6g of sugars per 100g it is barely sweet at all.
What is in it
The full ingredient list, with allergens in bold, is printed on the pack. Please read it before serving anyone with an allergy, and check the allergy advice on the pack you receive.
Serving it
Pair it with soft goat's cheese, Brie, cream cheese or smoked salmon, where the pepper does the job a grind from the mill would do. It is also good with a pâté and on a board next to plain table water biscuits.

The story behind Carr's
Carr's began in 1831, when Jonathan Dodgson Carr opened a small bakery and biscuit factory in Carlisle, with a flour mill alongside it: bread was baked by night and biscuits by day, and in 1841 the business won a royal warrant. The biscuit that made the name is the table water biscuit, a thin, crisp, plain cracker of flour, fat and salt, docked with holes and baked flat so it carries cheese without competing with it. Today the range runs from the table water biscuit in regular and large sizes, plain and with cracked black pepper, to the richer, flakier Melts and a cracker selection box. On our shelf the table water biscuit is the plain partner for soft and delicate cheeses, and the Melts are the choice for snacking and mild toppings.
Packaging: a 125g pack. Once the pack is open, fold it tightly closed or tip the crackers into an airtight tin, and keep them somewhere cool and dry. Damp air is what softens a cracker. The pack gives the best before date.
