Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt and shortening. Stir in water; mix until dough is smooth. Cover and let stand for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400*. With a pastry brush coat the bottom and sides of an 81/2-or 9-inch square shallow baking dish with 1 Tblsp. of the soft butter, then scatter 1 Tblsp. of flour or grated parmesan over the bottom of the dish.
