Steps:
- Whisk flour and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in the lard with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, blending gently with a fork or pastry blender until all flour is moistened and dough almost cleans the sides of the bowl. Divide the dough in half and shape flattened rounds. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

MIRACLE FLAKY LARD PIE CRUST
'For years, I wondered why people raved about lard pastry. Mine was either falling-apart-tender or flaky and tough. But I'm glad to have persevered, becasue a lard crust made well has no equal. It is more tender, more flaky, and more crisp than any other and doesn't shrink even if baked only an hour after mixing. It also browns less fast than a butter crust, making it convenient for pies that require longer baking. Lard crust is ideal for savory pastries. You can use half butter, but it is not quite as light, though very close, and for savory food, I prefer the flavor of all lard. Pastry flour produces the most tender crust. I like to roll out the dough on whole wheat flour for extra texture and flavor, which is compatible with the lard flavor. The success of this crust depends on the quality and temperature of the lard.' -Rose Levy Beranbaum's The Pie & Pastry Bible. Cook time is freezer/refrigeration time.

Steps:
- Place a medium mixing bowl in the freezer to chill.
- Place the flour, salt and baking powder in a reclosable gallon-size freezer bag, and whisk them together.
- Using a melon baller, scoop 1/2-1 inch balls of the lard directly into the flour, shaking the bag occasinally to distribute and cover them with the flour.
- If the room is warm and the lard starts getting very soft, place the bag in the freezer for about 10 minutes before proceeding.
- It is is still firm but squishable once it's all been added, using a rolling pin, roll together the lard and flour until the lard is in thin flakes.
- Place the bag in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
- Empty the flour mixture into the cold bowl, scraping the sides of the bag to release all of it.
- Set the bag aside.
- Sprinkle on the ice water and vinegar, tossing gently with a rubber spatula to incorporate it evenly.
- Spoon the mixture back into the plastic bag (if using caul fat, which is softer, the dough will already hold together, so it's easier to empty it out onto a piece of plastic wrap and knead it lightly from the outside of the wrap).
- Holding both ends of the bag opening with your fingers, knead the mixture by alternately pressing it, from the outside of the bag, with the knuckles and heels of your hands until the mixture holds together in one piece and feels slightly stretchy when pulled.
- Sprinkle the dough on both sides with a little whole wheat flour, wrap it with plastic wrap, flatten into a disc, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes, preferably overnight.
- STORES refrigerated up to 3 days; frozen, up to 3 months.
- NOTE: When rolling the dough, roll it directly on the counter or on plastic wrap.
- Sprinkle both sides of the dough and the counter or plastic wrap amply with whole wheat flour as needed to keep it from sticking.
- (The whole wheat flour will not toughen it and will give it extra crunch and a lovely, wheaty flavor.) POINTERS FOR SUCCESS: Pay particular attention to temperature, keeping the lard well-chilled.
- When mixing the lard flakes/flour mixture with the liquid, stir gently so as to maintain large flakes of lard.

Steps:
- Dice the butter and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board. Fold the dough in half, place in a pie pan, and unfold to fit the pan. Repeat with the top crust.
PIE CRUST
Some people shy away from making pie crusts. Here is a recipe to banish all fear, a simple dough of butter and all-purpose flour, easy to make and dependable as can be. If you plan to make a pie with a top crust, double the recipe; when it's time to chill the dough, divide it in half and shape into two disks to put in the fridge. The dough will also keep for 3 months in the freezer, if you want to stash a few disks there. Defrost in the fridge overnight.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse together the flour and salt. Add butter and pulse until the mixture forms lima bean-size pieces. Slowly add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough just comes together. It should be moist, but not wet.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gather into a ball. Flatten into a disk with the heel of your hand. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.
LARD PIE CRUST
This delicate, puffy crust uses a combination of lard and butter for the richest flavor and the largest flakes. You can substitute more lard for the butter, but you will lose some of the complexity. Make sure to seek out rendered leaf lard from a good butcher or specialty market, or try your local farmers' market. It's the purest and best quality pig fat to use in a crust. Avoid processed lard from the supermarket at all costs; it's been hydrogenated to increase shelf life and can sometimes have an off or mildly rancid flavor, not to mention the dangers of hydrogenated fat to your arterial health. You can freeze this crust for up to 3 months. Defrost for 8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- In a food processor, briefly pulse together the flour and salt. Add the butter and lard and pulse until the mixture forms chickpea-size pieces (3 to 5 one-second pulses). Or, if making by hand, stir together the flour and salt. Use two knives or a pastry cutter to cut the butter and lard into the flour mixture until you get slightly smaller pieces, the size of green peas.
- Add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse or mix until the mixture is just moist enough to hold together. Form the crust into a ball, wrap with plastic and flatten into a disc. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before rolling out and baking.

- Add flour and salt to the bowl of a food processor with knife blade attached. Pulse a few times to combine. Add lard and butter and pulse until coarse crumbs form (a little larger than peas). Sprinkle in ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after adding each one, until just moist enough to clump together when squeezed. Transfer dough to lightly floured work surface. Shape dough into a 1-inch thick disc and wrap tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate one hour or longer (recipe note #2).
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add lard and butter and cut in with a pastry cutter /pastry blender or two butter knives until you have irregular coarse crumbs (the size of peas and a little larger). Sprinkle in ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, while fluffing with a fork, until just moist enough to clump together when squeezed. Transfer dough to lightly floured work surface. Shape dough into a 1-inch thick disc and wrap tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate one hour or longer(recipe note #2).
- When ready to roll out dough, generously flour work surface. Place dough in center and sprinkle with flour. With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll into a 12-inch round starting at the center and rolling out toward the edges in every direction. (Dough should be cool, but pliable. If it feels hard, let it stand at room temperature until it has some give, 15 to 30 minutes. Alternatively, if it feels warm or looks greasy, return to the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before continuing to roll it out.) Gently fold dough over rolling pin and ease into a 9-inch, deep dish pie pan. Carefully adjust dough, gently pressing to cover bottom and sides. Trim dough edges with a sharp knife, leaving at least a 1-inch overhang to offset shrinking. Flute pie crust edge using the index finger of one hand to press between the thumb and index finger of the other hand to form a V or U shape all the way around. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or until ready to bake. (recipe note #3)
