PASTRY FOR SINGLE CRUST PIE

I love pies.  I don't love making pie crust.  It never turns out right for me.  It's either so dry it falls apart or so sticky it's on my hands and not in the pie plate.  And then there was the time I kept adding flour and...  Well, let's just say it made good wallpaper paste.

This recipe, though, sounds easy enough even for me.  I'm going to give it a try.

PASTRY FOR SINGLE-CRUST PIE
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup shortening
4-5 tbsp. cold water

In a medium bowl stir together flour and salt.  Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pieces are pea-size.

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the water over part of the flour mixture, gently toss with a fork.  Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl.  Repeat, using 1 tablespoon of the water at a time, until all the flour mixture is moistened.  Form dough into a ball.

  1. I'm Paula from Colorado, I have been blogging for a while now, and today I felt like I should share my story because I was a victim too. I had endometriosis and herpes virus for 18 years and I never thought I would ever get a cure due to the terrible symptoms I had and this made it impossible for me to get pregnant even after 12 years of marriage, and it was a serious issue. Furthermore, I got to know about Dr. Itua on a Blog Site who treated someone and the person shared a story of how she got a cure and gave her contact details, I contacted Dr. Itua, and he actually confirmed it and I decided to give it a try too and use his herbal medicine. That was how my burden ended completely. My son will be 2 this December, and I am grateful to God and thankful to his medicine too.Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Disease… Cancer, HIV, Herpes, Hepatitis B, Liver Inflammatory, Diabetes, Fibroid, Get Your Ex Back,  If you have (A just reach his on (drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com or order herbs from his herbs store https://drituaherbalcenter.com/shop/)He can also advise you on how to handle some marital issues.
