THE PERFECT Pie crust.....need I say anything else?
However, if you want a really FLAKY crust, forget the butter and shortening, and use Lard. I have tried all 3, and Lard definitely makes a HUGE difference in the consistency and flakiness of the crust.
Lard is rendered pig fat. yeah, it's a little on the unhealthy side, but if you're not eating a pie made with Lard everyday, there's not much harm.
If you don't like lard, try using half butter, half shortening together. Like I said I've tried all 3, and combination's of them together, and Lard by itself is the best.
