- Combine flour and salt in large bowl. Cut in shortening using pastry blender or possibly 2 knives till mix forms pea-sized pcs.
- Sprinkle with water, 1 Tbsp. at a time. Toss with a fork till mix holds together. Press together to create a ball.
- Press dough between hands to create 5- to 6-inch disk.
- Lightly flour surface and rolling pin. Roll dough in short strokes, starting in middle of disk and rolling out toward edge. Rotate dough 1/4 turn to right. Sprinkle more flour under dough and on rolling pin as necessary to prevent sticking. Continue to roll and rotate dough 2 to 3 more times.
- Roll dough into circle 1/8-inch thick and at least 1 inch larger than inverted pie plate.
- Place rolling pin on 1 side of dough. Gently roll dough over rolling pin once.
- Carefully lift rolling pin and dough. Unroll dough over pie plate. Ease dough into pie plate with fingertips. Don't stretch dough.
- Trim crust, leaving 1/2-inch overhang. Fold overhang under. Flute as desired. Cover pie crust with plastic wrap and chill 30 min to allow dough to relax.
