Mix flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in shortening with pastry blender. Add water and mix until all flour is moistened. Mold dough into two equal-sized balls. Flatten each ball and roll between waxed paper to 2 inches larger than the pie plate. Makes 2 9-inch pie crusts.

You can half this recipe to make one bottom crust. Also, you need to poke holes in bottom of crust if cooking just the empty shell.
