FLAKY PIE CRUST
I found this recipe in a old cook book Never thought of using egg and vinegar so I had to try it and did add a little touch of my own. I've been using it ever since! It's so easy to make, doesn't need to be ice cold and great for pie, turnovers, pot pies...etc.

Steps:
- Mix your flour and salt. Add your shortening using a fork and cut up into the flour. Using a chopping method until it's crumbly. Do not stir vigorously.
- In a separate bowl, add your water, egg and vinegar. Using a whisk, whip it up!
- Add the vinegar mixture to your flour mixture using the fork, turn and chop until somewhat blended. You may have some flour on the bottom of the bowl, that's okay.
- Turn it onto a floured surface gently pressing it to blend and form a ball. Roll in the flour, cut in half, form a disk shape and start rolling. Make sure to have plenty flour on your surface and on top of your dough to prevent it from sticking.
