| 1. Crust: mix 4 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium to large mixing bowl. | 2. Cut in the 1/2 cup of shortening with pastry cutter, two knives or a fork- until the mixture resembles coarse meal. | 3. Add water to the mixture a little at a time, you can use a fork or you hands to mix the flour and water- until all is mixed and is slightly sticky. | 4. Roll the dough out on a floured surface and knead until smooth. | 5. Cut the dough in half and chill the 2 balls of dough until needed. | 6. Filling: | 7. While boiling (40 mins) or steaming (30-40 mins) the potatoes, drain and de-bone the salmon. | 8. I personally don't like any bones, no matter how soft they are in my pie! | 9. Once potatoes are done and you can insert a fork into them without resistance, drain water (if boiled) and with a hand mixer start to cream the potatoes. | 10. Add the butter to the potatoes--as much or as little as you want--and cream together until the butter is melted and evenly distributed. | 11. Add the milk a 1/2 cup at a time until the potatoes are smooth and creamy, but not too thin nor too thick. | 12. Add the salmon chives, basil, salt and pepper and mix with the mixer or by hand. | 13. Add enough salt that you can taste it through the potatoes sufficiently. | 14. Roll out the first ball of dough large enough for the bottom and sides of a 13x9x2-inch pan. | 15. Line the pan with dough and add mashed potato mixture evenly into the pan. | 16. Roll out second ball of dough and place it on top of the filling; cut off excess dough and seal the edges of the pie. | 17. Make incisions in the dough like this:/// or like this:+. | 18. Bake for 40 minutes at 400°F or until browned on top and on bottom on the middle rack in the oven. | 19. Serve right away--we like it with butter melted on top and salt and pepper. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
