Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine the flour and the salt. Using a fork or a hand-held pastry blender, gently work the dry ingredients into the Crisco. When the mixture resembles cornmeal, make a well in the center and add 6 tablespoons of the water. Continue to blend, adding the additional tablespoon of water if necessary, until the dough comes together to form a ball. Divide into 2 balls, pat each into a thick, flat round, cover with wax paper and refrigerate for 1 hour before rolling out.
