How to Make a Good Pie Crust
HOW TO MAKE A GOOD PIE CRUST SHERYL JULIAN
THE BOSTON GLOBE
In the days when the settlers heaped fall
fruits and squashes into pastry bases, just
as they had done in England, families revered
good bakers. In those days, every woman
practically made pastry with her eyes closed
and lard was the fat of choice. "Half fat to
water to mix" was the formula most bakers
swore by, passing on to their daughters a
recirecipe without instructions.
As the formula trickled down through the
generations, cooks in this century adjusted
it to include solid vegetable shortening.
To make a double crust in a food
processor, put into the workbowl fitted with
Card 1 Back:
the steel blade, 2 cups flour, a pinch of
salt and 3 TB sugar. Pulse once to sift
them. Remove the lid and add 8 TB (1 stick)
cut-up butter and ¼ cup solid vegetable
shortening. Pulse quickly in on-off motions
half a dozen times or until the mixture turns
faintly yellow and resembles crumbs. Stop
the motor and remove the lid. In a 1-cup
glass measure whisk 1 egg with a fork. To
the cup add enough ice water to make ½ cup of
liquids. Add ½ teaspoon vinegar.
Sprinkle almost all of the liquids onto the
flour (always hold back a TB.) Replace the lid
and pulse in on-off motions just until the
pastry forms moist clumps. If the pastry
doesdoesn't form clumps, add the remaining

liqHOW TO MAKE A GOOD PIE CRUST, CARD NO. 2
liquids and work in on-off motions. If
necessary, add ice water to the food
processor by sprinkling it in with your
hands. The pastry must not come together in
the food processor to form a ball.
Turn the clumps out onto the counter and
cut through them over and over with a blunt
knife or a metal palette knife until they
come together to form a dough. Sprinkle
lightlightly with flour and divide in half.
Shape each half into a smooth flat cake.
Wrap separately in foil. Refrigerate for 20
minutes before rolling out. Use to make any
9" double crust pie or any two 9" one-crust
