Plain Pastry for Four Patty Pies

Sift together one and one-half cups of pastry flour, one-half teaspoonful each of salt and bakingpowder. Into this chop four tablespoonfuls of any shortening desired, and add slowly enough icewater to moisten, about six tablespoonfuls. The dough should be very stiff. Roll out and spread the surface with two tablespoonfuls of butter, fold over and roll again. It is well to let it stand in a cold place some time before using. Wrapped in a napkin it will keep several days in the ice-box.
