Homemade Saltines

4 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 c. shortening
1 1 /3 c. milk
salt to taste

Mix flour, baking powder and shortening; add milk and blend well. Form a ball of dough and cut into four pieces. Roll dough out very thin. Cut with a cookie cutter or use a pastry wheel with crinkled edges. Place on cookie sheet. Prick with a fork 4-5 times and sprinkle with salt. Bake 375 F degrees 8 to 10 or until golden (watch crackers carefully so they don't burn.)
