4 c. regular flour
1 tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. salt
1 3/4 c. shortening (DO NOT USE OIL OR BUTTER)
1/2 c. water
1 tbsp. white vinegar
1 lg. egg

In large bowl stir flour, sugar, and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. In small bowl beat water, vinegar, and egg, add to flour mixture and stir until all ingredients are moist. Divide dough in 5 portions and shape in flat round patty. Wrap in wax paper and chill for 1/2 hour, then roll out for a good crust.

This makes 5 pie crusts. They freeze well, so you can have a pie ready on short notice.
