2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
1/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon vinegar
Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in shortening. Add mild and vinegar. shape dough into a ball. Chill for 30 minutes. Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half to fit a 9-in. pie pan. Fill or bake according to recipe directions.
Hints - When transferring the dough to the pie plate roll it onto the rolling pin and then unroll it while laying it on top of pie plate.
When doing a plaid top start with the longest on the middle top to bottom then the side to side. Then back to top and bottom then side to side. This makes it easier to weave the pieces over the top of pie.
When I made it with my apple pie I just had a filling and baked the pie at 350 until the top was lightly brown. It was really good!
