Comment préparer Peggy's Foolproof Pie Crust

Whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold vegetable shortening and ½ cup cold lard using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles small peas.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 6 tablespoons ice water, and 1 tablespoon white vinegar.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, gently mixing with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently form into two equal balls.
Flatten each ball into a disc, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each disc of dough to your desired thickness. (For a double crust pie, you'll use both discs. For a single crust, use one disc and save the other for another time.)
Carefully transfer the dough to your pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges as desired.
Bake according to your pie recipe instructions. (Pre-baking a crust is often recommended for pies with wet fillings.)
