Position knife blade in food processor bowl; add flour and
salt. Top with cover, and process pulsing 3 or 4 times or
until combined. Add shortening to flour mixture. Process
pulsing 5 or 6 times or until mixture resembles coarse
meal. With processor running, slowly add water (1
tablespoon at a time) until dough begins to form a ball and
leaves sides of bowl. Cover and chill 30 minutes. To fit
into pieplate, roll dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a
lightly floured surface. Place in a 9-inch pieplate; trim
off excess pastry along edges. Fold edges under and flute.
For baked pastry shell, prick bottom and sides of pastry
generously with a fork; bake at 425 degrees for 10 to 12
minutes. Yield: pastry for one 9-inch pie.
