Como fazer Hot Water Pastry

In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a rolling boil.
Remove from heat and immediately stir in 1 cup of shortening or lard (or 1 cup of unsalted butter).
Stir until completely melted and combined.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt.
Gradually add the hot water mixture to the flour, mixing with a fork or wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each disc of dough to your desired thickness.
Use the pastry for your favorite pie, tart, or other baked good.
Bake according to your recipe instructions.
