This is an old standby pie crust recipe made with shortening. Often I use part lard.
Pie Crust
Ingredients
3 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
1 1/2 cups shortening
1 egg
1 tsp vinegar
5 T water
Directions
Mix flour, salt and sugar together. Mix in shortening with a fork or pastry blender, until crumbly.
Beat egg, vinegar and water together with a fork. Add to flour mixture.
Do not overmix, it makes it tough.
