3/4 cup Flour -- sifted
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup Shortening
1/3 cup Cheese -- grated
3 tablespoons Green chili & juice -- chopped
1 Egg white -- (slightly beaten)
Coarse salt

Drain chiles and reserve liquid. Sift flour & salt; cut in shortening.
Stir in chiles & cheese. Sprinkle mixture with reserved juice, adding
water if necessary to make enough liquid to moisten flour so dough can
be pressed into ball. Roll out dough to thin sheet (1/4" thick). Cut
into 1/2x4" strips. Brush with egg white & sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake on lightly greased cookie sheet in 425 F oven about 12 minutes,
until lightly brown. From the Chili-Lovers Cookbook.
