Knowing this basic pie crust recipe will make way for tart and pie weekends with the family. Fill as you wish.
Basic Steps:
1 Make the crust: Combine 1/2 cup butter (semi-soft, cut in cubes) with 1 cup all-purpose flour well until small nuggets have formed.
2 Dissolve 4 teaspoons granulated sugar and a dash of salt in 1/2 cup cold water, then add to the flour-butter mixture and work rapidly into a smooth dough. Knead gently until well combined, then let the dough rest covered in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Roll the dough to approximately 1 to 1 1/2-cm thickness.
3 Grease a pie mold, dust with flour, and gently lay in the pie dough, pressing the dough gently into the corner at the bottom of the pie mold.
4 With a fork, punch holes into the bottom of the dough.
