Whisk the flour and salt together in a medium size bowl.

With a pastry blender, cut in the cold shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Drizzle 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water over flour. Toss mixture with a fork to moisten, adding more water a few drops at a time until the dough comes together.

Gently gather dough particles together into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes before rolling.
