cup lard

cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening

tablespoons cold water (2 to 3 tablespoons)

Mix flour and salt. Cut in lard until particles are size of small peas.

Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all

flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons

water can be added if necessary).

Gather pastry into ball; shape into flattened round on lightly floured

cloth-covered surface.

Roll pastry 2 inches larger than inverted pie plate with floured

cloth-covered rolling pin. Fold pastry into fourths; unfold and ease into

Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of plate. Fold and roll

pastry under, even with plate. Flatten pastry evenly on rim of pie plate.

occasionally to prevent sticking. Or build up edge of pastry. Place index

finger on inside of pastry edge and knuckles (or thumb and index finger)

on outside. Pinch pastry into V shape; pinch again to sharpen. Fill and

bake as directed in recipe.
