Ok, check it.
Ever wanted to make hardtack? Yes, THAT hard tack. The stuff sailors eat.
I was just looking through an old journal from seventh grade and I found a recipe for hard tack.
...I don't even know.
So make some hard tack if you want.
-5 cups of flour
-1 2/3 cups water
-1 tablespoon salt
-1 tablespoon baking powder
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Mix in a large bowl
Roll out/spread out dough- about 1/2-1 in. thick
Score into squares
Bake at 450 degrees for about 25 minutes or until brown and tough
Brake apart into squares
Cool and serve at room temp
(Jelly/Jam is optional)
enjoy :)
