Trying to find the perfect pie crust recipe!. Found one that uses one teaspoon of vinegar!. Never heard of that before!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
That must be for a single pie if it is a teaspoon!.
That is the tenderflake recipe!.
That is the recipe I have used for years - very flaky pie - uses lard and the recipe on the package to make 3 pies and use the whole pound of lard, calls for 1 tablespoon of vinegar and an egg and the rest of the cup filled with very cold water!.
I think the recipe with vinegar is called never fail pastry!.
You might try this one that I saw Cindy Crawford make on TV unsing oil instead of lard!. It looked like good pastry!.

The vinegar is used in your pie crust recipe because the acid (along with the shortening) keeps the gluten strands from getting too long--thus resulting in a tender, flaky crust!.
I have been doing that for many years, I also use an egg in my mixture instead of all water!. If you would like to see my recipe, let me know!. It's called 'fancy pie crust!.' Nothing fancy to it really it's just nice and flaky!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
