  • About

This dough can’t miss; it makes a great, flaky crust.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ cup vegetable

Method

  1. Mix the flour, salt, and shortening in a bowl until crumbly in texture.

  2. In another bowl, beat the egg, vinegar, and water until fluffy. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the flour mixture. Mix and knead to combine, but don’t overwork the dough. Chill overnight.
