Steps:
- 1. Measure flour& salt into large mixing bowl.With pastry mixer cut the shortening into the flour & salt until the mixture resembles cornmeal. Add ice water,a little at a time,mixing it into the dough until it starts to come together.Try not to over mix,because it can make the crust tough. Divide the dough in half into 2 balls. It makes a 8 or 9 inch double crust pie or 2 single crust pies. I've never had it to fail. You can use it right away or refrigerate for 2-3 days. Fruit pies generally cook in an hour or so; other pies/quiches,etc.,will have various cooking times depending on the recipe.
