Specialty Recipe

No-Fail Crust

This recipe never fails - it's from an old homemaking teacher friend of Veriena and Cindy. Use with Old-Fashioned Lemon Pie or Fresh Apricot Tarts.

Ingredients

4 cups unsifted all-purpose flour

1 Tablespoon sugar

2 teaspoons salt

1-3/4 cups shortening (Crisco sticks work well)

1/2 cup water

1 large egg

1 Tablespoon white or cider vinegar

In a large bowl, mix the first 3 ingredients well with a wire whisk. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Mix water, egg, and vinegar in small bowl and beat well. Add to crumble mixture, stirring until all ingredients are moistened. Divide dough into 4 portions. Wrap each in plastic wrap and chill at least 1/2 hour.
