2 tb Cornmeal
1/3 c Firm bacon drippings OR
1/3 c Shortening OR lard
3 tb Cold water (or 1 more)
Combine flour and cornmeal, then cut in bacon drippings. When mixture
is granular, add the water, in small quantities to insure a flaky
crust, until pastry is mixed.
Roll out on a floured surface to a circle 1 1/2 times larger than an
inverted 9″ pie pan. Fit pastry into pan and form a fluted edge all
around.
