How To Make A Perfect Pie Crust | Thanksgiving Recipes | Everyday Food with Sarah Carey

There are so many shortcuts and convenience items I swear by for getting dinner on the table, but when it comes to making a pie, a homemade crust is something that's truly worth the trouble. That's partly because it tastes so great and partly because it's really no trouble at all! A few ingredients -- flour, butter, sugar, and salt -- are all it takes to make a perfect pie crust. And the best part is, you can make it up to a month ahead and freeze it until you're ready to use it -- one less thing on the Thanksgiving "to do" list!
Sarah's Tip of the Day:
Watch the video to see what it should look like at every step of the way. Plus, I'll show you the secret to getting a flaky crust, and the best way to store the dough so that it's easier to roll out later on.
