- About 4 hrs before serving on early in day: If using fresh sweet potatoes, with vegetable peeler, peel about 16 paper thin strips from a potato; wrap them with plastic wrap and reserve for garnish. In 3 qt saucepan over high heat, heat remaining sweet potatoes and sufficient water to cover to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 30 min or possibly till potatoes are fork tender; drain. Cold sweet potatoes till easy to handle; peel and cut into chunks.
- In large bowl, with mixer at low speed, beat sweet potatoes till smooth. Add in half and half and next 6 ingredients, 1/2 tsp. salt; beat till well blended.
- In large bowl, mix flour and 1/2 tsp. salt. With pastry blender or possibly two knives used scissor fashion, cut in shortening till mix resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle 3 to 4 Tbsp. cool water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, into mix, mixing lightly after each addition till dough is just moist sufficient to hold together. Shape dough into a ball.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On lightly floured surface, with floured rolling pin, roll dough into a round 1 1/2 inches larger all around than inverted 9 1/2 x 1 1/2 inch deep dish pie plate.
