This recipe will show you why old-fashioned cooks choose lard for their pastry. The pastry turns out super flaky and manageable to roll out. Along with the lard, there 's brown sugar, egg yolk, vinegar and baking powder. The resulting dough bakes up into a rich crust that will handle any filling beautifully.

Flaky, flaky, flaky. Cold vegetable shortening and ice water do the trick to make this classic crust true to its name.

My mother-in-law gave me this recipe. She always used lard and I found it easier to work with than vegetable shortening.
