  • No ingredients list = no pie dough. Thanks Cat.

  • 100% Flour 70% Butter 30% Water

  • HOW MUCH OF EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

    

  • hello!!! recipe please?

  • How come you dont say how much to use? These videos are WORTHLESS!

  • iron chef!!!

  • OMG can we plz get some direct ingrediant measurements? I'm never gonna learn

  • Thank you Cora!!!

  • Can I use a rotary type grater to grate the chilled butter/lard into my flour mixture

  • The fat will clog up a rotary grater. The pastry blender is best, gives you more control & they are cheap. Don't mix all of the fat in, leave a lot of it in pieces the size of baby peas. This is what makes it flaky. My perfect pie dough is always a formula of 3 - 2 - 1. 3 parts flour 2 parts fat 1 part ice water for a 2 crust pie: 12 oz flour + 1 tsp salt 8 oz Crisco (trust me) 4 oz iced water Make sure to let it chill after mixing. Roll it out between sheets of waxed paper.
  • wow she's a pro!

  • Oh, yeah. Here's the quantities for a single 8-9" pie shell:

    1 1/4 unbleached all-purpose flour

    1/2 Tbsp. salt

    1 Tbsp. granulated sugar

    6 Tbsp. unsalted butter (1/4" pieces)

    4 Tbsp. vegetable shortening or oil

    3-4 Tbsp. ice water

  • she said equal parts shortening and butter!! it's a lie!!

  • CD, you use an eggwhite to brush on the crust, not a yolk

  • But isn't the rule supposed to use egg yolk to brush on pie crust so it gives it a nice glaze?

  • That's what the egg is for. It hardens when you bake the lower crust with the egg. Before you put the filling you bake the glazed crust. The egg glazes and hardens so the filling doesn't seep through the crust and make it soggy. Of course, you don't always bake the crust beforehand. It depends on the filling.

  • Oh....thanks. I used to be really good at baking pies, but my skills has gotten a tad rusty. Do i have to pre-bake the bottom pie crust if i want to make blueberry pie?

  • Not true. Everyone has the own way. You can u even use a whole egg.

    I personally use an egg with a bit of milk and salt.

  • how much 1 cup of flover 2

  • No, you don't need to pre-bake the shell for fruit pies.

  • Hello, thanks for the video. Can you tell how much of each thing you used?

  • Disculpa pero, de nada sirve ver estos videos tan bien hechos que realmente están incompletos pues no tienen las cantidades que usaron, gracias.

  • jannell - beat an egg yolk and brush it over the crust before you blind bake it.

  • wow she's a pro!

  • What is the best way to make a crust for a custard pie,that won't get soggy?I've heard of using oil,shortening and/or butter.I've even come across recipis that use egg in the pie dough, what does this do to the pie?

  • Hello, thanks for the video. Can you tell how much of each thing you used?
