[quote=Anonymous]Trick my sister taught me in college: sub all or some of the water out for vodka chilled in the freezer — it has no taste, the alcohol burns off while baking, and ethanol is still liquid at 0C. Makes it much easier to get a good flake. Also, I roll out my pastry between two big sheets of cling wrap which means it doesn’t stick to the counter or the rolling pin. For a recipe I use my old Fanny Farmer one: 1 2/3 cup flour, 2/3 cup shortening (I use half lard, half margarine but whatever you have on hand will be fine), 1/3 cup water/vodka. Food processor PPs are probably right about that but I don’t have a food processor big enough so I just use a pastry blender/my fingers.[/quote]
