Ingredients

• ✓ all-purpose flour
• pork sausage
• milk

Instructions

1. 1 Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until crumbly and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove sausage to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; set aside.

Whisk vigorously until roux forms, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook for at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.
3. 3 Stream milk into roux, whisking constantly. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, increase heat to medium and continue cooking, whisking constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add some of the sausage to gravy if desired.

By Joanna

Ingredients

• ✓ all-purpose flour
• salt
• shortening
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Whisk flour and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in chilled shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse, pea-sized crumbs.
2. 2 Add 1/4 cup ice-cold water; use a fork to stir the flour up from the bottom, just until it's mixed in. Press down on any chunks and continue working the dough around the bowl. Continue to add ice-cold water, in 1 tablespoon increments, mixing just until dough is moist enough to hold together when molded; you will not need more than 4 tablespoons and in fact, may need less.
3. 3 Gently gather dough together into a ball. Divide in half, and flatten each half into a 1-inch-thick disc. Wrap each disc in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. For best results, chill for 4 hours, or up to 2 days.
4. 4 When ready to use, roll dough on a lightly floured surface, being careful not to overwork it.
5. 5 Fit dough into a pie plate. If it crumbles or tears as you work it, just pinch and press it back into shape.
6. 6 Use pie crust as directed in your pie recipe.
