GRANDMA'S NEVER FAIL PIE CRUST
When I make a Pie crust from scratch , this is my go to recipe. It's so easy to make and is very good. Vinegar can serve two useful roles in pie crusts - it promotes tenderness and can keep the crust from getting too brown.

Steps:
- 1. Mix flour , salt and Crisco shortening together to make a crumb mixture.
- 2. Beat all the wet ingredients well together and add to the crumb mixture ; blend to form a ball ; then divide and roll out to 2 pie crusts.
- 3. You can follow any pie recipe that you are gonna be using but if you want to pre-bake the crust, after you have formed your pie dish with the crust then freeze the crust for at least 30 minutes or until chilled. This will prevent the crust from slip down the sides.
- 4. Preheat your oven to 350°F. After the pie crust has been chilled then line the pie crust with parchment paper or wax paper. Fill at least two-thirds full with pie weights - dry beans, rice, or stainless-steel pie weights.
- 5. Bake with weights in the pie for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, cool a few minutes and carefully remove pie weights. Poke small holes in the bottom of the pie crust with a fork and return to oven (without the weights) and cook for another 10 minutes or until the crust is golden.
- 6. Cool completely before filling.
- 7. NOTE : You may need to cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil or a crust shield if your going to be putting a filled pie back in the oven to keep the edges from getting too dried out and burnt.
NEVER FAIL PIE CRUST FOR 6 CRUSTS
This crust has never let me down no matter what the temp. or humidity in my kitchen. Keeps 3 weeks in frig so it's great to have around the holidys or in the summer when fresh fruit is available. I'm much more likely to throw a pie together if I know all I have to do for a crust is roll it out. Not much more work than a store bought crust but there's no comparison in the quality. Got this recipe from a dear friend's 94 year old mother. Her mother taught her to make crust this way when she was a girl so the recipe's been around a long time, although I'm sure it was made with lard back then and used immediately. This is one of my most prized recipes. Cook time is chill time.

Steps:
- Mix flour, salt and sugar.
- Cut in Crisco until finely mixed (mixture will begin to stick together).
- In a one cup measuring cup, beat egg; add vinegar; fill to one cup with cold water; add to well in center of flour mixture; mix well (it may be sticky).
- Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap; pour dough onto center of wrap and form into an even loaf; bring ends of wrap over dough and wrap tightly; store in frig.
- Crust is better if it stands overnight in the refrigerator.
- When ready to use, unwrap loaf; score, but do not cut, in half and then score each half into three even slices of dough.
- Cut off individual crusts as needed, rewrapping unused portion; can be stored in refrigerator up to three weeks.
MY FAVORITE VINEGAR PIE CRUST
I won't eat any other kind; my grandma, mom, and aunt make this, and until I was 11, I didn't know there WAS another kind. Good both in desserts (sprinkle top with sugar for a two-crust pie) and main dishes (really good with pot pie). Don't go substituting for the shortening, unless you use lard. Lard and shortening are 100% fat, while butter and margarine are only 80% fat. It won't work right, trust me. To freeze, flatten individual crusts into discs about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick, wrap in waxed paper, and freeze in airtight freezer bags with all the air squeezed out. To defrost, let sit out, don't do it in the fridge or it'll get too dry. It doesn't have to completely defrost before you use it; just start rolling as it's starting to soften and it'll speed the process. Makes 4 pie crusts (enough for 4 one-crust pies or 2 two-crust pies). Also good for pasties, turnovers, etc.

Steps:
- Mix salt with flour.
- With pastry cutter or fork and knife, cut shortening into flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make sure there are no large pieces left.
- Add egg and knead in just until mixed.
- Quickly add vinegar and ice water all at once.
- Knead until dough is a cohesive, homogenous ball that just begins to pull away from sides. (Flour hands if necessary.).
- Divide into four equal balls for immediate use or to freeze. If it's a warm day, you may need to chill the dough just a few minutes to make it easier to roll.

VINEGAR AND EGG CRUST
This crust was used by Elsie Hack to win the 1978 Ohio State Fair pie baking contest. (It was wrapped around an apple pie.) Because the crust is very flaky when baked, it is a bit difficult to roll and handle, but well worth the effort.
