Nairn's Gluten Free Cracked Black Pepper Wholegrain Crackers, 137g
A peppery gluten free cracker built on oats: crisp and good with soft cheese.
Nairn's Gluten Free Cracked Black Pepper Wholegrain Crackers, in brief.
Nairn's Gluten Free Cracked Black Pepper Wholegrain Crackers are made with 51% gluten free wholegrain oats, maize flour and rice flour, seasoned with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
They are a gluten free cheese cracker with a peppery lift, made for soft cheeses and dips. The nutrition panel is printed on the pack.
A gluten free cracker has to work without wheat, and Nairn's builds this one on gluten free wholegrain oats, 51% of the recipe, with maize flour, rice flour and starches for crispness. Ammonium carbonates lift the dough, and cracked black pepper and sea salt season it.
Pepper and soft cheese is a good pairing, and a crisp oat base carries a proper topping.

The story behind Nairn's
Nairn's story begins in 1896, when John and Sarah Nairn opened their bakery in Strathaven, a market town in Lanarkshire. Today Nairn's bakes in Edinburgh, and oats are the whole point: oatcakes rough and fine, cheese oatcakes, seeded and organic oatcakes, and a gluten free range. The oatcake is the Scottish cracker, mostly wholegrain oats with a little oil and salt, baked into a nutty, crumbly round that loves strong cheese; Nairn's Rough Oatcakes list 90% wholegrain oats. The gluten free oatcakes, crackers and flatbreads are made with gluten free oats, and Nairn's own label notes that some people who avoid gluten also react to avenin, a protein in oats.
Packaging: a 137g 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.
