    1 3/4   c            Unsifted all-purpose flour
      1/2   t            Salt
      2/3   c            Vegetable shortening
      1/3   c            Cold water
    1       c            Sugar
      1/4   c            All-purpose flour
    1       d            Salt
    4       c            Fresh blackberries,
    1       x            Washed and drained
 
      Sift together flour and salt in a mixing bowl.Cut in shortening
   with a pastry blender until mixture resembles large coarse crumbs.
    Sprinkle water over flour mixture,using a fork to stir it in gently
   to make it gather into a ball (the less water the better - just
   enough to hold it together).Turn out onto a lightly floured board and
   shape with your hands into two balls,one slightly larger than the
   other.Chill dough for 1 hour,then roll out large ball to fit the
   bottom of a 9 or 10″ pie dish.Now,mix sugar and all-purpose flour in
   a separate bowl,then add a dash of salt and stir in berries.Pour
   mixture into the empty pie shell,then roll out remaining ball of
   dough to make top crust.Crimp and trim edges,then slash the top crust
   in several places.Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 25 to 30
   minutes or until golden brown.Makes 1 - 10″ pie.
