Ian'S Quiche - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 c. All purpose flour
    1/4 tsp. Salt
    4 Tbsp. Butter flavor crisco, cold
    4 Tbsp. Butter, cold
    1/3 -/+ c. Water, cold
Preparation
    Add the 1/4 tsp. salt to the flour, then in a large bowl cut the crisco and butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
    Using a knife stir the water into the flour mixture a little at a time until it starts to come together.
    Then, using your hand, press the dough together.
    It should not be wet or sticky, but should feel soft and not tough.
    A good pastry dough should leave the sides of the bowl clean.
    Roll out onto a floured board to about 1/4-inch thick, line a 9-inch flan tin, then line with greaseproof paper.
    Pour in dried beans or rice, to stop the pastry from rising.
    Bake at 375\u00b0f. 190\u00b0c. gas mark 5 for 20 minutes.
    When cooked remove the beans from the crust.
