Ingredients
-
5 lb. all-purpose flour
3 lb. solid shortening
3 c. water
2 Tbsp. salt
1 c. white corn syrup
Preparation
-
Cut shortening into flour (in a dishpan or other large container).
Dissolve salt in water and mix into flour along with the syrup.
Divide dough into portions for 1 crust, shaping each portion into a ball.
Place balls in individual vapor-proof bags (such as Ziploc that can be sealed) and freeze.
When ready to use, thaw and roll out on floured board. This is just as good after it has been frozen as before and does not get soggy.
It takes time to mix, but it is worth the trouble.
Makes approximately 20 single crusts.
