BLUE RIBBON APPLE PIE

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, salt, butter and vegetable shortening until the mixture looks golden and resembles coarse cornmeal.
• Pour the flour mixture into a large bowl. Add the ice water, 1 T. at a time, lightly fluffing the mixture with your fingers. Add water until to the mixture until the dough just becomes to come together. (I always mix the water by hand, so I have more control.) If you are not sure, try squeezing a little of the dough together in your hand. If it clumps, you are done.
• Gather the dough into a ball, divide it into two pieces, then flatten the pieces into discs. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least one hour.
• Roll out the two pieces of dough. There are two main tricks to rolling out pie dough: One is not to use to much flour-you can always add a bit more if the dough is sticking to the table, but you can't take it away. The other is to never roll the dough using a back and forth motion. Always work from the center and roll out. That will keep you from working the gluten too much. Use one dough disc to line a 9" deep dish pie pan. Place the second rolled out dough on a cookie sheet. Place both discs back in the refrigerator to rest.
• Preheat the oven to 400. Make sure there is enough room for a tall pie - you may need to remove a rack.
• Remove the dough discs from the refrigerator and set aside.
• In a large skillet, melt the butter. When the butter is sizzling, toss in the apples and stir so they are coated in the butter. Cook for about 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally. You may have to do this in two batches.
• Remove the apples from the skillet (but not the liquid) and put them in a large bowl. Toss the apples in the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Brush the inside of the bottom crust with the beaten egg white. Pile the sauteed apples into the crust, then cover with the remaining dough disc. Trim the crusts, then pinch them together. Crimp into a pretty pattern. Slice air vents into the top crust. I like to leave my crusts plain, but you can brush with egg wash (if you like it shiny) or milk (if you like it brown and soft).
• Turn the oven down to 375. Place the pie pan on a cookie sheet, anbake until the crust is a deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 50-60 minutes.
• Let cool completely before serving.
• In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, salt, butter and shortening until the mixture looks golden and resembles coarse cornmeal.

BLUE-RIBBON APPLE PIE

• Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate. Roll 1 pie crust on lightly floured surface into 11-inch circle. Transfer crust to prepared pie plate. Trim dough leaving 1/2-inch overhang; brush with egg white. Set aside. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place apple slices in large bowl; sprinkle with lemon juice. Stir together sugar, flour and cinnamon in small bowl. Add to apples; toss to coat apples evenly. Spoon apple mixture into pie crust; place butter pieces on top of apple mixture. Moisten edge of crust with water. Roll second crust into 11-inch circle. Place on top of filling. Trim, leaving about 1/2-inch overhang. Seal edge. Cut slits into crust at 1/2-inch intervals around edge to form flaps. Press 1 flap in toward the pie center and next flap out toward pie plate rim. Continue around pie edge. Cut 4 slits in top of dough to allow steam to escape. Beat egg yolk and sour cream in bowl until blended. Cover; chill until ready to use. Bake pie for about 10 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees. Bake 35 minutes. Brush pie with egg yolk mixture. Bake until crust is light golden, about 20-25 minutes.
