2 teaspoons salt - (level)

1 cup granulated sugar

Recipe
Bring all ingredients to room temperature. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Mix the flour and baking soda in a bowl and set aside.
Use an electric mixer to mix the two sugars and shortening. When creamy
add the vanilla, salt, and egg white. Add the flour 1/2 cup at a time
adding a tablespoon of warm water as necessary to mix the flour -- don't
exceed 4 tablespoons of water -- this will make a firm dough. Mix in
chocolate chips. As the dough gets thicker you may want to mix by hand
and abandon the electric mixer.
Roll into 2-inch balls and press down with the palm of the hand to make
flat. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
