Flaky Pie Crust

This is for Gert. I adapted this recipe from allrecipes.com. I love this basic pie crust recipe and has been using it for all my homemade pies. I even used it to bake curry and pork floss puffs. For the above chicken pot pie, I used two pie crusts.

Ingredients: (yield one 9 inch pie crust)

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, cold, cubed
5-6 tablespoons ice water

Method:

1. In a food processor, add in the flour, salt and cubed cold butter. Pulse a couple of times.

2. Add in Tbsp. of cold water while pulsing at the top opening until a dough is formed.

3. Turn the dough on a plastic wrap, wrap well and refrigerate until ready to use.
