CRUST: Make dough by mixing butter, shortening and salt together until
soft. When it starts to congeal, add milk. Mix until it is incorporated.
Pie dough will be soft. It makes 1 double pie crust. Preheat oven to
350 degrees now.

FILLING: Put the liquid ingredients into a pan and add the contents of the
mix dry ingredients. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add the sliced
peeled apples. Let cool. When cool, place inside prepared pie shell. Cover
pie with the top crust. make slashes so that the steam can escape. Bake at
350 degrees until done, approximately one hour.

NOTE: This is a very famous restaurant in the Boston area. I have never
made an apple pie by cooking or almost cooking the apples first. This
sounds very interesting and a bit different. Am anxious to try the crust as
well.
