I thought I'd share my Mom's NEVER
FAIL PIE CRUST since I had such rockin' success with it over
Thanksgiving. 'Tis the season for baking and I guarantee this recipe
has worked for me every time. Lettin' you in on a Pickard family
recipe here folks!
THE PICKARD NEVER FAIL PIE CRUST RECIPE
- 1 Glenn Tilbrook album or Squeeze
album to play in the background while you bake
- 3 cups flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 cup shortening (in the US:
regular flavored CRISCO. in the UK: you can try White Flora but I
don't offer the never fail guarantee with that!)
- 1 egg
- 5 Tblsp. water
- 1 tsp. White Vinegar
Before beginning, crank up rocking
tunes, roll sleeves up and wash hands.
- Blend flour, salt, shortening.
(use fork or pastry cutter)
- Beat egg until thoroughly mixed,
then add water and mix both together.
- Pour water/egg mixture over
flour/shortening mixture and let stand a few minutes to absorb the
liquids.
- Mix together with wooden (strong)
spoon.
This dough will be very wet, so when
handling, flour your hands, flour your rolling pin and have plenty of
flour on the surface upon which you will be rolling the dough.
- Final touch: If you're
making a fruit pie with runny filling, sprinkle a small bit of sugar
(not too much) over the bottom pie crust before cooking so it
absorbs some of the liquid. If you're making a pie with a top crust,
brush on a little bit of milk and a little bit of sugar before
sticking in the oven to ensure a golden brown crust.
If you want my mom's pecan pie and
cherry pie recipe, email me! Good luck with your crust! Mmmmm Mmmmm
Scrum Yum!
I want to give all of my thanks to
everyone for their continuing support and wish everyone a safe, lucky
holiday and a rocking, lucky 2005!
See you in the new
year!
Amyx
