Economy Paste for Pies

When both wheat flour and fat must or wants to be saved, economy paste should be tried. Barley flour is substituted for part of the wheat flour, and this with the wheat flour makes an excellent combination.

Ingredients:


1 cup wheat flour

1/2 cup barley flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 to 3/8 cup cold water


Preparation:

  • Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl.
  • Chop in the shortening until it is in particles about the size of a small pea.
  • Add water until the mass will cling together.
  • Roll into sheets about 1/8 inch thick for pie crust.

NOTE: Water is the only liquid used in pastry making. Water should be as cold as possible, or cold water in which small pieces of ice are allowed to melt is especially desirable for this purpose.
