WalkersShortbread Thick & Crunchy Oatcakes 300g, 4 x 300 g

Excellent.

Etwas gröber und daher herzhafter im Biss als die üblichen Highlander. In Deutschland praktisch nicht zu bekommen. Hervorragende Träger zu allen Pasteten, auch Fisch und Gänserillettes! Schnelle Lieferung!

I love Walkers Oatcakes, and these are lovely. Caveat: I suspect they're more palatable to a British-type palate, as they are something of an acquired taste due a lack of sugar/salt.I have re-ordered them. They do take about a month to arrive here in Canada as they are shipped from the UK.

Oats, for those who may not know, are a grain with a size and shape like barley or 'fat rice'. There are three basic ways that the oat groats are prepared: rolled, steel cut, and ground. In the US, rolled oats are the predominant form and are the type found in the Quaker Oats box or granola. Steel cut oats are associated with Ireland and are basically oats that have been chopped into even sized pieces. Ground oats, associated with Scotland, are just that - ground into relatively fine pieces. These crackers are made with ground oats, olive oil, wheat flour, wheat bran, skim milk solids, salt, and baking soda. Note that there is no sugar and that salt is listed at the end. These are not the kind of cracker that you eat plain (although I enjoy them that way), but instead are designed to be used as a base for a canape, or served with a bit of jam if you want sweetness. These are simple oat cakes that may not appeal to the American taste buds accustomed to sweet, flavored, salty crackers. They are delicious and wholesome and make a good snack.

We are fans of Walkers shortbread and I thought I would try these as something “healthier.” They arrived from The UK to Chicago intact, and are a wonderful find! A great snack on their own or as a base for cheese, salmon, etc. Will be ordering more!

These used to be available on store shelves, but haven't seen them for years. Great with butter and honey on them. So pleased I can now get them through Amazon.ca
