FOOLPROOF PIE DOUGH
Vodka is essential to the texture of the crust and imparts no flavor - do not substitute. This dough, which was developed by a test-kitchen team led by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt for "America's Test Kitchen," will be moister and more supple than most standard pie doughs and will require more flour to roll out (up to 1/4 cup).

Steps:
- Process 1 1/2 cups flour, salt, and sugar in food processor until combined, about 2 one-second pulses. Add butter and shortening and process until homogeneous dough just starts to collect in uneven clumps, about 15 seconds (dough will resemble cottage-cheese curds, and there should be no uncoated flour). Scrape bowl with rubber spatula and redistribute dough evenly around processor blade. Add remaining cup flour and pulse until mixture is evenly distributed around bowl and mass of dough has been broken up, 4 to 6 quick pulses. Empty mixture into medium bowl.
- Sprinkle vodka and water over mixture. With rubber spatula, use folding motion to mix, pressing down on dough until dough is slightly tacky and sticks together. Divide dough into two even balls and flatten each into 4-inch disk. Wrap each in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes or up to 2 days.

AUNTIE IRENE'S FOOLPROOF PIE CRUST (LARGE BATCH)
I failed miserably at making pie crusts until I found this one. It's the only one I've used since. The vinegar helps tenderize the dough with no aftertaste when it's baked. This dough makes enough for 20-30 crusts. For a smaller batch (4-6 crusts) recipe, see recipe #100064. This is the pie crust my mother used when she annually made hundreds of pies for the county fair pie booths of her church and the local Sr. Center. Time is for preparation only.

Steps:
- Cut flour, salt, sugar and half of Crisco together until crumbly, then cut remainder of Crisco in until size of peas; set aside.
- Put vinegar in a 2 quart liquid measuring cup.
- Fill to 2 1/2 cup mark with cold water.
- Add eggs and beat with fork.
- Drizzle over dry ingredients; stir with fork.
- Turn onto lightly floured board and knead approximately 5 times, until no longer "sticky".
- Divide by 1/2-3/4 cup measure.
- Roll out on a lightly floured surface, using as little flour as possible and handling as little as possible.
- Bake empty shells at 400°F for 10-12 minutes on the bottom rack of the oven.
- Cooking pies on the bottom rack of the oven will help prevent over browning of the top and soggy crusts on the bottom.
- This dough freezes extremely well; simply flatten divided dough into a disk and put into a Ziploc bag, removing all air; thaw in fridge and roll out as directed.
FOOLPROOF PIE CRUST
From the queen of entertaining in The Hamptons, Ellen Wright's beautiful "Bridgehampton Weekends" cookbook made me religious about perfecting a fruit pie with a crust that supports this delicious experience. I recommend popping in Tony Bennett's "Making of an American Classic" and invite a crowd.

Steps:
- Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a medium-size bowl.
- Cut the shortening with a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- You may also use a food processor.
- Add the milk, little by little, working a fork until the mixture comes together.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and roll it out so it is about 1/4 inch thick.
- Do not overhandle the dough.
- Transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate for your pie.
- Or form it into a ball, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
- *Tips from Ellen:.
- To make rolling the dough easier, flour your rolling pin and work surface. Don't be afraid to gently pick up the dough and turn it to prevent it from sticking.
- To transfer the dough to the pie plate, loosely roll the dough around your rolling pin and unwrap it over the pie plate. This prevents the dough from tearing.
- If you are using a food processor to prepare the dough, pulse on and off until the mixture resembles coarse meal. When the milk is added the dough will form a ball. Stop pulsing at this point so the dough isn't overworked.

Steps:
- 2. Sprinkle vodka and water over mixture. With rubber spatula, use folding motion to mix, pressing down on dough until dough is slightly tacky and sticks together. Flatten dough into 4-inch disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes or up to 2 days. 3. Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place rimmed baking sheet on oven rack, and heat oven to 425 degrees. Remove dough from refrigerator and roll out on generously floured (up to ¼ cup) work surface to 12-inch circle about 1/8 inch thick. Roll dough loosely around rolling pin and unroll into pie plate, leaving at least 1-inch overhang on each side. Working around circumference, ease dough into plate by gently lifting edge of dough with one hand while pressing into plate bottom with other hand. Leave overhanging dough in place; refrigerate until dough is firm, about 30 minutes. 4. Trim overhang to ½ inch beyond lip of pie plate. Fold overhang under itself; folded edge should be flush with edge of pie plate. Flute dough or press the tines of a fork against dough to flatten it against rim of pie plate. Refrigerate dough-lined plate until firm, about 15 minutes. 5. Remove pie pan from refrigerator, line crust with foil, and fill with pie weights or pennies. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and weights, rotate plate, and bake for 5 to 10 minutes additional minutes until crust is golden brown and crisp.
