When I took a baking class here is the exact recipe we were given to make pie crust. Reminds me of the Technical Challenge in the Great British Bake Off series. LOL
half as much shortening as flour
half as much water as shortening
pinch of salt
Mix it with a fork until blended. Then put in a zip lock bag and stick in the freezer for about 30 minutes. Roll out.
I use lard for any recipe that requires shortening. The instructor said that was what he used.
Use water free of chlorine for all baking.
