This recipe uses frozen butter or margarine so you can skip the
chilling step and get right at the rolling. I use frozen butter for biscuits and other pastry as well as for the pie crust. Grating makes the pieces just the right size to incorporate in the flour. Pie Crust 2 cups flour 6 Tbsp margarine or butter -- frozen 4 Tbsp vegetable shortening -- Smart Beat trans fat-free works well. 1 tsp salt 1/4 cup ice-cold water -- approx Measure flour into a bowl. Add salt and mix. Using large holes of a grater, grate frozen margarine or butter over the flour. Add shortening. With pastry blender or fingers, blend until mixture looks like coarse meal with some lumps. Add water and mix with a fork just until mixture holds together. Add additional water a tablespoon at a time if needed. Roll out 1/2 of dough for bottom crust and the other half for the top crust. If not using immediately, wrap the dough in waxed paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate. -- Rec.food.recipes is moderated by Patricia D. Hill at .
