3. Add the all-purpose flour, semolina, baking soda, and cardamom powder and mix to resemble a fine meal (like corn meal).
   
   
4. Take a spoonful of the mixture and form a tight ball and press it to make a flat and round shape 1/2-inch in diameter. Decorate with slivered almonds, pressing gently. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
   
   
5. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet or baking sheet for 30-40 minutes, until cooked but still white. Make sure they don't brown.
   
   
6. Let the cookies cool and harden.
