   In a medium bowl, cut shortening into flour, sugar, and salt until
   the mix looks like cornmeal or small peas. In another bowl, slightly
   beat egg yolk and combine with milk and lemon juice. Add to flour
   mixture and mix by hand until it forms a ball. Roll on well-floured
   pastry cloth with a well-floured rolling pin.
   
   This pastry maintains its flaky qualities even after being rolled out
   a number of times.
   
   Makes pastry for one 2-crust pie or two single-crust pies.
