Pie Crust

 

Ingredients: yields 2 crust rounds

2 cups flour

1 tsp salt

1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small cubes

1/2 cup sour cream

Whisk together flour and salt. Using hands, work butter into the flour mixture. Add sour cream and work in with a fork. Once it starts to clump, knead with hands until dough comes together. Divide in two, form disks, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least an hour before using.

Freezes well, just be sure to thaw well before you need it.

Tip when rolling out: if it’s being stubborn and not shaping the way you want, walk away for a few minutes and then come back to it :)
