Skill required: Beginner
1 cup pastry flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
3-4 tablespoons cold water
1. In a food processor (blender), combine flour, butter and salt.
2. Process just until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; leave some chunks of butter about the size of BBs.
3. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and lightly work in just enough cold water to make the dough come together into a scrappy heap. Do not knead or overwork; it is not necessary to make the dough smooth.
4. Roll the dough into a circle and plant the circle in a two-piece tart pan. Trim the edges of the dough and bake or fill as instructed in a pie recipe. You can make the crust several days in advance and keep frozen until just before filling and baking.
