Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking soda, and 1 tsp salt.
Step 2
Cut 4 tbsp cold butter into small pieces and rub into the flour mixture with your fingers until it looks like coarse crumbs.
Step 3
Add 1/2 cup water and stir until a dough forms. Knead gently on a floured surface for 2 minutes until smooth.
Step 4
Roll the dough very thin, about 1/8 inch thick. Prick all over with a fork to prevent bubbling.
Step 5
Cut into 2-inch squares and transfer to a baking sheet. Brush tops with a little water and sprinkle with 1 tsp coarse salt.
Step 6
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and crisp. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
