Directions:Directions:
Combine flour, salt & sugar in large bowl.
Cut in fat using pastry cutter or your finger tips. Dough will eventually look like it has peas in it.
Gradually pour in starter, a little at a time. Just until it comes together. Depending on humidity and the water content of your fat this may be more or less than 1 Cup.
Once the dough barely comes together, gather it up in a bowel into a cohesive mass and cover it up with plastic wrap place the bowl on a plate. This is just in case the dough rises to much. Leave it in a warm place for at least 7 hours to culture.
When ready transfer to freezer or refrigerate. This is crucial the fat must be cold to aid in a flakey crust.
Once its cold remove it and roll it out and put into your pie plates. |

Notes: This is the best pie crust I have ever had, it is very light and flaky. I loved it for my blueberry pie. The other recipes I tried the top of the crust was extremely hard, not very edible.
