Directions:
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar and salt with a fork.
- Cut in the shortening with a fork until crumbly.
- In a small bowl, beat together the water, vinegar and egg; add to the flour mixture.
- Stir until all ingredients are moistened.
- Divide dough into 5 portions and, with hands, shape each into a flat round patty ready for rolling.
- Wrap each patty in plastic or waxed paper and chill at least 1/2 hour.
- When you are ready to use the pie crust, lightly flour both sides of the patty and roll out on a lightly floured board or pastry cloth.
- Keeping the pastry round, roll, from the center, to a 1/8-inch thickness into a circle 2 inches larger than the top of the pie pan.
- Fold in halves or quarters, transfer to the pie pan, unfold and fit in loosely.
- Press with fingers to remove air pockets.
- Fill the crust.
- Place the other crust on top; flute edges with a fork and place decorative slits in top of crust to allow steam to escape.
- Bake as directed in the pie recipe you are following.
- Bake pie on the LOWEST rack in oven to prevent bottom crust becoming soggy.
- FOR A PRE-BAKED UNFILLED PIE SHELL:.
- Prick the bottom and sides of a pastry lined pie pan with a fork.
- Bake on the CENTER rack in a preheated 450 degree Fahrenheit oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown (a metal pan will take longer than glass).
- Cool on a wire rack (the shell will shrink and edges pull away from pan).
- Fill as desired.
