2 cups sifted flour
1 tsp. salt
3/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup ICE COLD water
Directions:
Combine flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender or 2 knives (I prefer the latter) until mixture is uniform (fairly coarse). Sprinkle with water, a Tablespoon at a time; toss lightly with fork. When all the water has been added, work dough into a firm ball. Divide the dough into 2 parts and press into flat circles with smooth edges. Roll crust to desired size on a floured board or a pastry cloth. Makes one 8 inch or 9 inch double crust. Enjoy! -Diana
