Total Time:

1:35

Ingredients:

2 cups sifted flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp. butter or shortening
1 egg yolk
2 tsp. lemon juice
3 to 4 tbsp. ice water

Directions:

All the ingredients should be very cold. Sift the flour with the salt. Cut in the butter or shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Sprinkle the liquid over the flour and mix lightly until the dough holds together. Chill thoroughly.

Roll the dough 1/4 inch thick and cut into squares or rectangles of the desired size. Have the filling ready. Place a portion of the filling in the centre, bring the edges together, and seal in a neat ridge along the centre. Place, sealed side up, on a greased baking sheet. Brush with a beaten egg diluted with 2 tablespoons of water or milk. Bake in a hot oven (400°F) for 15 to 20 minutes.
