Cut lard into cubes(about 1 inch) and freeze. Mix together flour, salt, and baking powder in the bowl of a food processor. After the lard is frozen, add to the food processor. Pulse until the flour mixture is crumbly and resembles small peas. Add the liquid mixture through the feed tube. Continue until the mixture forms a ball. Divide into four and form into flat disks. Chill for about 15 minutes. Roll out about 1/4 of the dough on a floured board until 1/8 inch thick. Cut to the appropriate size and line the tart tins. While I am making the filling, I place the lined tart tins in the freezer. You get flakier pastry if you keep it chilled before baking.
