GRANDMA'S BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Beat the egg and vinegar together in a small bowl, and set aside. Whisk together the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the cold butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add the ice water a tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork, until the flour mixture is moistened.
