2 tablespoons sugar |

3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
5 tablespoons chilled butter |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese |

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Mix first 7 ingredients (flour through baking soda) in a large bowl.
3. Cut butter into small bits and mix in with 2 knives or use your fingers to blend until butter is blended in and mixture is a coarse meal.
