Favorite Pie Crust

Best Ever Crust

Sift together
1 1/4 Cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt

cut in  1/3 cup of lard
until mixture is in pea size pieces (I use a fork for this)

Start adding ice water 1 TBSP at a time tossing flour mixture with a fork pushing moisened dough to the side of your bowl until all the dough has been moistened.

This should take 3 -5 TBSP of water.
form dough into a ball and roll out on a floured surface.
Will make a 12 crust.

*Try using this dough for pot pies it is wonderful
* Using lard will make the crust flaky
