Pie Crust

This is a recipe for a pie crust from Silver Spoon Cookbook by The Kansan newspaper in 1967. i do not recommend using a syringe as the recipe calls for, use a spoon, as this is what I used.

Pie Crust
Mrs. Blanche Boerstler

1 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 1/2 Tablespoons shortening
3 Tablespoons ice water

Cut shortening into flour with paring knife. Squirt ice water into mixture after shortening has been cut into flour the size of small peas. Squirt ice water with a syringe and needle 5cc size. Roll crust out lightly. Bake until golden brown at 425 degrees.

As I stated before do not use a syringe and to belive this was in the paper... a total shock!
