Description

I got this from my mother. She has used it for as long as she has been baking. It is very easy to make and tastes wonderful. I use heaping tablespoons of shortening because I like a very short crust.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup vegetable shortening
  • ½ cup water
Directions
  1. 1. Sift flour and salt together in a bowl. Cut in shortening until it looks like coarse crumbs. Add water until dough forms.
