INGREDIENTS
| 5 | c | All-purpose flour |
| 1 | lb | (500g) cold shortening |
| 1 | Egg | |
| 1 | tb | White vinegar |
| Ice Water |
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Measure flour and place in a large bowl. Cut cold shortening into 1" cubes and add to flour. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut shortening into flour until it is the consistency of coarse meal. Make a well in centre. 2. Place egg and vinegar in a measuring cup. Add ice water to bring it up to 1 cup. Whisk to break up egg and blend with water. Add liquid to flour mixture all at once. Then, using a fork, work until all dry ingredients are moist. Using your hands, gather dough into a firm ball. Do not over- mix or knead dough. Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. 3. Wrap each piece of dough individually and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 30 minutes but preferably overnight. Well-wrapped pastry will keep well inthe refrigerator for a least a week or in the freezer for several months. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
