Directions
Work in the shortening with a pastry blender or 2 knives until particles are the size of rice grains.
Add the milk all at once, stir quickly only enough to dampen the dry ingredients.
Spread dough in bottom of an 8-inch greased pie pan.
Arrange plums over top.
Sprinkle salt, nuts, and sugar over top, and dot with butter.
Bake in a moderately hot oven (400° F.) for 20 to 25 minutes.
Serve warm.
6 servings.
This is also good made with sour red plums, but more sugar will be required.
