Tablespoon Baking powder

Sift dry ingredients together. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Add water  
and mix until holds together. Knead 10−15 times until dough forms a smooth  
ball. Cover and let set for 20 minutes. Divide dough into two parts. Roll  
dough to 1/8" thickness on lightly floured board. Cut into 3" squares or  
triangles. Do not allow to dry; cover those waiting to be fried. When ready  
to fry, turn upside down so that surface on bottom while resting is on top  
when frying. Fry in 3" hot oil until golden brown, turning once. Add only a  
few at a time to maintain proper temperature. Drain on paper towels.
