INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups Sifted white flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2/3 cups Shortening
- 5-7 tablespoons COLD water
INSTRUCTIONS
Cut in half for only one shell. This is for 9" crusts.
Start with only 5 tablespoons of water and add more depending on how dry it is. Altitude can also affect this. You want it soft enough to roll but not be sticky. Mix with hands or pastry blender.
On a pastry pad/board, use flour to keep it from sticking to the board and roller. Roll out evenly in all directions from the center. Once it's large enough, gently fold in half, pick up and lay in pie plate. Settle it in all the way around the then trim excess on the edges of the pie plate.
Now you're ready for whatever kind of pie you want to make.
