Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 c All-purpose flour
1 ts Baking soda
2 tb Vegetable shortening
2/3 c Water

"A tender, crisp cracker with a neutral flavor. These are excellent
for cleansing the palate while tasting wines, and they are also the
perfect foil for cheeses of all kinds. 350~F. 20 to 25 minutes
Preheat the oven to 350~F.

In the food processor or in a large bowl, mix the flour and baking
soda. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Slowly stir in enough of the water to form a dough that will hold
together in a cohesive ball.

Divide the dough into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured
surface or pastry cloth, roll into a rectangle no thicker than 1/8
inch thick. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 2-inch squares.
Place on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Prick
each square 2 or 3 times with the tines of a fork.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until medium brown and crisp. Remove to
a rack to cool. Yield: 50-60.
