1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla

DIRECTIONS
In a large mixing bowl stir together the sugar, baking soda, and salt. Stir in 3 eggs, vanilla, and almond extract. Stir in the flour and chopped nuts.

On a well-floured surface, knead dough 8 to 10 times. Divide in half. On a lightly floured surface shape each half into a log about 9 inches long. Place logs about 4 inches apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Pat each log into a flattened loaf about 10 inches long and 2 to 4 inches wide. Stir together the egg and water; brush over loaves.

Bake in a preheated 325 degrees F oven for 30 minutes. Cool on a rack. Cut each loaf diagonally into 2-inch-thick slices. Place slices, cut-sides down, on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake in the 325 degrees F oven for 5 minutes. Turn slices over and bake for 5 to 8 minutes more, or till dry and crisp. Remove cookies from pan and cool on a rack.
