TNT: Torn ‘N Tattered, Tried ‘N True, Dynamite Recipes<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

No-fail Pastry<\/h3>\n

1 pound lard or shortening
\n5 cups flour
\n1 tsp. salt
\n1\/2 tsp. baking powder
\n4 tsp. brown sugar
\n1 egg
\n1 tbsp. vinegar
\nwater<\/p>\n

Combine the lard and four dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and cut together until the mixture resembles peas. (I use a mix master at slow speed.) Put egg, vinegar into an 8-ounce cup and beat together with fork. Add water to fill to 8 ounces; stir the liquid ingredients together.<\/p>\n

Add liquid to dry ingredients. Mix and roll out as required, or package portions and freeze for later use.<\/p>\n
