Homemade Saltine Crackers

0 Blend the egg white with the water to make an egg wash. Set aside.
1 Mix together the flour and baking powder.
2 If you are adding seasonings mix those in with the dry ingredients.
3 Cut butter into flour mixture until it forms coarse crumbs.
4 Add the milk and knead gently to form a ball.
5 Divide in 4 parts and roll out paper thin on a floured surface. The thinner they are the crisper they will be.
6 Cut the dough into squares or desired shapes. (a pizza wheel works great for that!)
7 Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and prick all over with a fork.
8 Brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with salt (or cracked pepper ..or..)
9 Bake at 325 until golden brown..about 15- 20 minutes. (check after 10 minutes)
10 Let cool before serving. They crisp as they cool.
