Best Pie Crust in the World

Ingredients:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted

- 3/4 cup butter-flavored Crisco (shortening)

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1/4 cup tap water

Steps:

1. Mix 1/3 cup of the flour with 1/4 cup tap water; stir until smooth to form a paste.

2. Blend the remaining flour with salt and Crisco using a fork or pastry blender until crumbly.

3. Stir the paste into the crumb mixture until the dough sticks together.

4. Turn dough out onto a floured board and roll out (makes 2 crusts).

5. Patch dough if needed (won’t be noticeable once baked).

6. Bake at 350°F until done.

Notes:

- Patching may be required during rolling, per original instructions.

- Forms a full double crust (top + bottom).
