6	tablespoons	boiling water
2	cups	flour
1/8	teaspoon	salt

Directions

1. Cut butter into small cubes and place in medium bowl.

3. Add flour and gently combine, handling as little as possible.

4. Divide the dough in half. Generously dust a clean, dry surface with flour and roll dough out with a rolling pin until you have a circle about four inches wider in diameter than the pie pan.
