in a medium bowl
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 Tablespoon Vinegar
5 tablespoon cold water

Add liquid to flour, stir with a fork,
this might be sticky, add a little more flour around side of
bowl, and work into a ball with your hands,
Divide into separate balls.
You can use right now, by rolling out onto floured waxpaper.
or refrig a bit.. before rolling .
You can use flour to roll this out plus put flour on your rolling pin.
and it won't get tough.
makes enough for two 8-9 " pies.
Hint: lightlywet the surface you are laying the waxpaper on, will keep it from slipping around.then flour the top,
