Flaky Pastry Pie Crust

Yield: 2 pie crusts

Ingredients

3 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup vegetable shortening, cold

1/4 pound cold unsalted butter, diced

1/2 to 2/3 cup ice water

Add To

Directions:

Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in medium-sized mixing bowl.

Add the shortening and butter and cut with a pastry cutter or two forks until mixture becomes pea-sized bits.

Slowly, drizzle in the ice water and combine the mixture with a spatula or wooden spoon. Add only enough water to moisten the dough and have it just come together in large clumps.

Dump the dough out onto a floured board and knead quickly into a ball.

Wrap the dough in plastic and allow it to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before using.
