Dolly'S Pie Crust
- 4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups lard
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1/2 cup water, iced
- Mix all dry ingredients in large mixing bowl. Cut in lard until fine crumbs appear. DO NOT OVER DO THIS STEP.
- In separate bowl mix together the beaten egg, vinegar and cold water (the colder the better). Add this to the above dry crumb mixture and bring dough together in a ball form.
- Remove from bowl and shape into large disc shape. Double wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours. Unwrap and place disc on lightly floured board. Cut into 4 wedges and re-wrap 2 wedges and return to refrigerator.
- Roll dough out to desired size and continue with your pie.
- This freezes wonderfully for future use. If you do freeze, make sure to double wrap and place in a freezer bag. Try to use within 8 weeks for best results. If you store in refrigerator, use within a week.
