How to Make Alice's Pie Crust
- In a 1-cup measuring cup, whisk together 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Fill the cup to the top with cold water.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (2 sticks) cold lard, cut into small pieces. Cut the lard into the flour using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour the egg-vinegar-water mixture into the well. Using a fork, gently mix until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix!
- Form the dough into a disk, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
- For best results, allow the dough to come to room temperature slightly before rolling. This crust also freezes beautifully for future use!
