Amish Pie Crust

Put 3 cups of flour into a mixing bowl, add about 1/2 tsp. of salt and a cup of Crisco. Then work the Crisco into the flour with your fingers until it's crumbly. Work in the water a few drops at a time, until it's just right for rolling. This will make crust for three pies, no one ever makes just one pie in "Dutchland".

Hint: When making a fruit pie, put the lower crust in the oven for 5 minutes and bake while you are rolling out the top crust. Then put in the filling and put on the top crust. The bottom crust will not get soggy.
