Never Fail Pie Crust

Judy Nielsen’s recipe. Makes enough dough for 2, 2-crust pies.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup lard or shortening
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbsp vinegar
  • 5 Tbsp water

Work shortening into flour and salt with a pastry blender or by criss-crossing two knives. Add egg and vinegar and mix. Add additional water as needed to form dough. Roll out on floured surface.
