1859 Recipe for Pie Crust
 

1 pound sifted flour
1/2 pound sweet lard or beef drippings
dessert teaspoon of salt
Work the lard into the flour and salt mixture.
When mixed, put to it enough cold water to bind it together.
Flour the pastry slab and flour the rolling pin.  Take part of the paste and roll it to less than a 1/4 of an inch thick.  For the upper or outside crust of a pie, roll the paste out thin, then spread a bit of butter, half the size of an egg, over it.  Fold it up and roll it out again, and cover the pie.  As are most recipes from that time period, it is assumed that you know the basics of baking and cooking and no other directions are given.
