Flaky Crust for a Cold Pie.— (For this recipe I am in- debted to the author of A Younger Son’s Cookery Book, by A Younger Son's Daughter, published by Messrs. Bentley, 1896.) — For a moderate-sized pie-dish take about half a poimd of flour, and make up with water in the ordinary way, but without mixing in any fat or butter whatever. Now take, for the above quan- tity, from five to six ounces of butter

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
