Never-Fail Pie Crust

Tamsin: This is Gma Harris’s recipe; it really doesn’t fail.

Sift together:
2 c flour (the flour must be VERY lightly measured—it’s more like 1 7/8 cup)
1 t salt
Add: ½ c oil

Stir with fork and mix thoroughly so all flour is mixed in. Add
4 – 6 T cold water (usually 5 T)

Stir only until moistened, using rubber scraper to form ball. If dry flour remains, add a little more water. Makes 2 single pie crusts, or one double. Recipe may be cut in half for one crust. For baked shell, bake at 450° for 10 – 12 minutes.
