pies part ner would say what a the matter with your pies lately they are not a bit like the ones you used to make and bob would add fuel to the tire by saying mrs blank can sure make a wonderful pie it was really quite a mystery as i had always rather prided myself on my pastry what had gone wrong i did not know could be the flour or the shortening was my oven too hot or too cool i bought different flour tried var ous brands of lard and vegetable shorten ng experimented with the oven but the result was si 11 the same tough hard pastry dur nj the summer i gave up the struggle and fell back on bakeshop p es then there wore more compla nts what arc you buying p es for all the t me well i would swer f you are go ng to grumble you might as well grumble at bake sho pies ai m ne but just reccr tlj w th mo e time it m d p sal i started ex -purrmentmr- again 1 bought till another k nd of shorten ng and followed the rec j e on the pickage wh ch says to take out cup of tttfffff wit with flitrof water and then sprinkle ovojr the re- ma nder of the flour and shortening that method was ent rely i ew to me and so help me it worked the puzzle of the pies now past my rcputat on is restored and my fam ily once more enjoys p es like mother used to make why do 1 tell you all th s be iuse i have discovortd that i am not the only one who has exper enced failure even the best of cooks admit t some say it is the flour others the shortening whai ever the reason they find that the method that had been successful for years is now a failure and the bakeshops are hav ng a field day 1 have told you how i solved my problem but it may not work for you pastry has temperamental qualities which must be coordin ated withthc art of the maker so if you are hav ng trouble find out f you can the flour the short ntngand the method -beet-sulted- to your own personal needs bit remember good pies br ng about ne def n te result the better the i es the faster ihey d sappear so be prepared well bak ng p
