Ingredients
- 3 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 c. (1 stick) margarine
- 1/2 c. Crisco
- 1 egg
- 1 Tbsp. white vinegar
- 3 to 4 Tbsp. ice water
Method
- In medium bowl, stir together the flour and salt.
- Using a pastry blender, cut in the margarine and shortening.
- Keep working the flour and shortening until the mixture is rather grainy, like coarse cornmeal.
- Mix the egg and vinegar together and, using a wooden fork, stir the mixture into the flour.
- Mix enough of the ice water so that the dough barely holds together.
- Place on a marble pastry board or a plastic countertop and knead for just a few turns, enough so that the dough holds together and becomes rollable.
- Makes a top and bottom crust.
