Pastry (no -fail!)

Total Time: 8 hrs 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 8 hrs

Ingredients

• 1 cup lard (tenderflake)
• 1 cup salted butter
• 3 cups flour
• 1 cup sour cream

Recipe

• 1 cut lard and butter into the flour until it resembles crumbs. (you can also do this in a food processor to make things go faster.).
• 2 stir in the sour cream until mixed and all the ingredients come together in a ball.(this will happen automatically if using a food processor. if you are doing this on the countertop, put a little flour down to prevent sticking. this can be a little messy without it!).
• 3 flatten the ball into a disc, wrap in foil and refrigerate overnight.
• 4 work with half of the dough at a time and keep the other half in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• 5 pound the dough with a heavy rolling pin and roll out to desired shape or width.
• 6 cook time is actually "chill" time.
