Rubbing butter and lard into flour means to end up with pea sized pieces. I use my pastry cutter. Some people use a couple knives. This prevents the heat of your hands from melting it. Then add water to make into dough like substance which can be rolled out

One of the things I love about old recipe books are the advertisements and the tips. One of my old books said if you have very dark hair, use a eyebrow pencil to highlight your widow’s peak. Also if your teeth are crooked, don’t use red lipstick!

If you have a cookie press try that net time. My recipe calls for 1 1/2 soften unsalted butter, 1 lb of cheddar cheese to 4 cups flour. spices you got right The cookie press works great that is how we made them in Michigan growing up and that's how they make them here South Georgia. Try that see if you like it that way most everything is the same.

When you mentioned magic baking power. Then I pulled my old Royal backing powder cook book from the late 1920's. They also have a cheese straw recipe. they are so different: one cup of each flour and cheese , 1 teaspoon baking powder and then spices, mix in a bowl add 3 tablespoons milk and one egg. roll to 1/8 inch cut thin narrow strips. bake for ten at 450F

I've discovered oiling my hands lightly for sticky dough actually works better than flour. I'm not sure why I thought to try it, but it works great if you have the right flour to wet ratio. Love the recipe box recipes! I recently experienced the joy of blanching and freezing my own asparagus, and some food pantry fresh green beans (score!). Then, a day later (today), I pulled them and bagged them and they shook around just like the grocery store frozen veggies! So awesome. They will stay in my fridge freezer for a quick grab. I prefer cooking with frozen and fresh. I am working pantry veg into the rotation, but change takes time.

Miss Bev, try rolling out the dough thinner, up the oven temperature to 375-400 depending on how slow your oven runs. Maybe the straws will crispy up like crackers or chips. Also, a sprinkle of sea salt and or garlic or onion powder. Just a thought . Making me a list of needing to try. What’s next😁

The reason that you might not be having times and temperatures for baking, is that back then most people still used wood burning cookstoves and ovens. And temperatures were kind of done by waving a hand in the oven to see if it was 'warm enough yet'. And then the time table was done by rotating the baking items often and at some point it would 'look and smell' done, and then testing when pulling it out of the oven. That's what my grandma did, and I've done with wood burning stoves and ovens.

When butter started to get more expensive a number of years ago, I finally found some lard on a store shelf. At that time, it was 1/4th the cost of butter. Due to demand, the cost is proportionately much closer to butter, FAR easier to find, and its price varies a lot per unit from store or store chain to store. It cooks different than butter and it seems that being cool to cold before hitting the hot oven is more important with lard than butter. It also doesn't turn golden like butter so judging doneness by a glance takes an adjustment. Use 50-50 lard and butter mix, an egg wash, egg yolk wash, or a swish of the butter stick across the top in the last minutes of baking to get a golden look.

Sounds really. I'm curious how they would taste over time. Right now it's just hubby and I in the house. Many baked good taste great the first few hours. Not so great after the first, second and third day. While I'm sure my hubby would eat all in one day, I really would not want him to. I'm wondering if they are okay 3 days from now or should I divide by a third.
