My own personal bake-off...trying to find the most tender pie crust -- all-butter (some lard), and without hydrogenated vegetable shortening. Four different recipes, but the best is the one I'll try next -- a crust with vodka instead of water...the alcohol evaporates and liquid isn't available then to form as much gluten (making for a tough pie crust).
Beautiful pumpkin and apple, and also blueberry-raspberry (from the summer garden).
