Flaky Pie-Crust
Oven, in the book's wordsA quick oven
Ingredients
Directions
The book says “a quick oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.
Cover with crust.
Trim the edges neatly.
Bake in a moderate oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes.
Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
