Flaky Tender Pie Crust




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




3 cups Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 1/4 cups Shortening
1 Egg -- well beaten
5 tablespoons Ice water
1 teaspoon Vinegar


Recipe



In a small straight-sided bowl, combine flour and salt.
Add shortening. Use a pastry blender to cut in shortening until mixture resembles
coarse crumbs.
Combine egg, ice water and vinegar; add to flour mixture ALL AT ONE TIME.
Use a fork to stir briskly...not more than 10 strokes...or until mixture forms a loose ball.
Turn dough out onto a sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap,
and use hands to gently compress dough into a ball.
Refrigerate dough at least 30 minutes before rolling out on a piece of wax paper.
(You'll need a fresh piece for each crust you roll.)
Makes a double-crust pie or 2 single crust pies.
