Well depends on what you are making...for pie crust you'll be fine using plain all purpose flour. The best thing is to experiment around, maybe try a combination of both, it is all up to you so don't fear getting creative ;)

What about the flour. I normally use a pastry flour, but in most recipes i see all-purpose being used. Doesnt matter i guess?

Yeah, I didn't think it would make any difference before I actually tried it. To me, butter was butter and just mixed it all in the flour. But, I figured I'd give it a try since using cold butter is one to the tricks to making puff pastry so I didn't think it would hurt to try it with pie crust. Never went back since.

oh i see. interesting to know. im still learning, so its fun to see different ways of doing things.

Cold temperatures help a piecrust maintain its flakiness and shape. The dough is held together with ice water, which helps keep the fat distinct—warm water would soften the fat. When the dough is rolled out, the fat is flattened into flakes. When baked, the fat creates steam, which lifts the dough into flaky layers

Since you claim to be in competitions, explain something to me. I work in a bakery and i've taken courses. And i NEVER used chilled butter, or chilled me mix in a freezer. So explain to me why almost every recipes requires chilling. I also do my dough by hand, no processor or pastry cutter.
Lol it seems like this woman spent more time dancing then making pie crust

Simply atrocious recipe and end result. Try baking that and see how it comes out. Like a rock, most likely.
