List of Ingredients



• 4 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
  
• 2 teaspoons salt
  
• 1 3/4 cups vegetable shortening (no substitutes)
  
• 1 tablespoon vinegar
  
• 1 egg
  
• 1/2 cup ice water
  






Instructions



1. Put flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add the shortening and cut it in until the mixture is crumbly and there are no big lumps of fat.
   
2. In a small bowl, use a fork to combine the vinegar, egg and ice water. Add vinegar mixture to the flour mixture and stir with a fork until all ingredients are just moistened and the dough comes together in a ball.
   
3. Divide the dough into fourths, each of which will make 1 crust. Put dough you will use now in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill and freeze the rest.
