APPLE PIE WITH ROSE WATER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
• Slice apples into mixing bowl and add sugar, cream, and rose water, and mix thoroughly, so that rose water will be distributed evenly. Line a 9-inch pie dish with favorite pastry. Fill with apple mixture and cover with top crust in which a few small vents have been slashed for steam to escape. Flute the edges well to keep juice from escaping. Bake in a moderate oven for 50 minutes.
• In a bowl, rub the flour and lard together. Add enough water to make a dough (not too stiff).
• On work surface, roll the dough out and spread with some of the butter. Fold over evenly and butter. Make a second fold. Roll out again, being careful not to squeeze the butter out. The layers of dough and butter repeated provide the flakiness of the crust.
• Use a pinch of ginger in piecrust to eliminate the taste of lard in case it is not fresh.
