1. 1

   Blend flour & shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add a little water & mix until dough just starts to come together. Gather into ball & divide in half. Shape each half into a ball, flour lightly & wrap in plastic. If you are making one single-crust pie, freeze one ball of pastry for another time. Chill the pastry you are using for 2 hours.

2. 2

   Roll out pastry & ease into a 9" pie pan. If you are making a double-crust pie, roll out top crust.
