Flaky Tender Pie Crust

Directions

1. 1
   In a small straight-sided bowl, combine flour and salt. Add shortening.
2. 2
   Use a pastry blender to cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg, ice water and vinegar; add to flour mixture ALL AT ONE TIME. Use a fork to stir briskly...not more than 10 strokes...or until mixture forms a loose ball. Turn dough out onto a sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap, and use hands to gently compress dough into a ball.
3. 3
   Refrigerate dough at least 30 minutes before rolling out on a piece of wax paper. (You'll need a fresh piece for each crust you roll.)
