Pie Crust-From the kitchen of Ellen Ethington

6 cups flour
2 cups lard or shortening
1 Tbspn. baking powder
1 tspn. salt

Mix together using pastry cutter or your hands until crumbly, texture should resemble peas.

Add
3/4 cup water
1 egg

Gently push together, DO NOT MIX HARD! Be gentle when handling the pie dough, mix it like you're making biscuits, not bread.
