• 5 tbsp (70 ml) water

1. In a large mixing bowl, blend together the flour, salt, and shortening until it resembles coarse meal or bunches of baby peas; set aside in a refrigerator or in a cool place (You don't want this is get warm or mushy).
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, vinegar and water.
3. Dump the egg/vinegar mixture into the flour/shortening mixture.
4. Form a big ball with your hands, don't overwork the dough, it doesn't "knead" it.. Hehehe!
