The Perfect Pie Crust (this has been a little bit of an obsession)

The Perfect Pie Crust

***

4 cups flour, King Arthur is the best!!!

1 1/2 cups butter flavored Crisco

pinch of salt

pinch of sugar

1 egg

1 tsp white vinegar

iced water

*

In a large bowl combine flour, salt, sugar and Crisco. Mix into small crumbs.

In a measuring cup combine egg and vinegar. Add ice water to total 1 cup.

Add to flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Divide into 2 balls.

On floured sheet of waxed paper roll dough out. Top with a sprinkling of flour.

And place in pie dish.

I always use a glass Pyrex dish. I think it cook more evenly

 and I can see if the bottom of the crust is done.
