BASIC PASTRY
This is the basic dough for pies,
tarts and quiches.
Makes three 9-inch pie shells
2 2 ⁄ cups all-purpose flour
3
32
2 sticks very cold unsalted butter,
cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1 ⁄ cup ice water
2
Use metal blade to process flour, butter and
salt until mixture is like coarse meal, about
8 seconds. Add ice water and pulse until dough
begins to clump together. Do not let it form a
ball. Divide dough into three equal parts and
put each in a plastic food storage bag.
Work through each bag to press dough together
into a ball, then flatten into a disc. Refrigerate
dough for at least 1 hour.
Roll each disk of dough on lightly floured
surface into a circle about
Press into place in pie pan. Use kitchen shears
to trim dough, leaving 1-inch overlap beyond
pan. Fold overlap under and pinch crust to
form decorative edge. Prick bottom and sides
with fork and refrigerate crust for 30 minutes,
or until firm.
Fifteen minutes before baking, preheat oven
to 400°F.
Line pie shell with parchment paper and fill
it with uncooked beans or rice. Bake for
12 minutes. Remove paper, beans or rice.
Prick shell again and bake it 6 minutes longer, or
until it is lightly browned. Remove shell from pan
and let cool on wire rack.
Fruit Tart Variation:
Use a 9-inch tart pan instead of a pie pan.
Bake shell according to above directions.
When cooked shell is thoroughly cool, fill with
about 1 cup of pastry cream (see recipe on
page 35.) Arrange sliced, fresh fruit (kiwi,
peaches, raspberries, etc.) decoratively on
top and serve immediately.
