I remember a pie crust from a recipe long ago, which you could make in the pie pan. Here is one I think similar to what I recall:
Pat A Pan Pie Crust (Amish Cooking) 1½ cups of flour 1½ teaspoons sugar ½ teaspoon salt ½ cup vegetable oil 3 Tablespoons cold milk Instructions 1. Place the flour, sugar, and salt in the pie pan and mix with fingertips until evenly blended. 2. In a measuring cup combine the oil and milk and beat until creamy. 3. Pour all at once over the flour mixture. Mix with a fork until the flour mixture is completely moistened. 4. Pat the dough with your fingers, first at the sides of the plate and then across the bottom. 5. Flute the edges. 6. Shell is now ready to be filled. 7. If you are preparing a shell to fill later or your recipe requires a prebaked crust, preheat oven to 425. 8. Prick the surface of the pastry with a fork and bake 15 minutes. 9. Check often and prick more if needed. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Linda S. via Cookinginthedark Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2020 9:10 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Linda S. Subject: [CnD] Pie crust Hi everyone: Since we're on the subject of baking, I read a long time ago, in one of the cookbooks made just for those of us who are blind, a recipe for piecrust. I remember instead of using shortening, it called for vegetable oil, and then you piece the piecrust with your hands in to the pan. It was probably in one of the books like, "cooking with feeling," or food at your fingertips? Can't remember. Does anyone remember this, or am I crazy? If you know, lease send the recipe? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
