  • On this episode of Laura in the Kitchen, I want to show you how to make a very basic pie crust.
  • Now, this is my go-to recipe that I've been using for years and years, and you know, throughout the fall and winter months, you will see me use this a whole lot.
  • This is the base for my pumpkin pie, apple pie, I mean, you name it, this is the recipe I go for.
  • The ingredients are very simple, all you're going to need is some all-purpose flour, vegetable shortening, unsalted butter, salt, and very cold water.
  • The key to making an excellent, excellent buttery, flaky crust is to have your ingredients extremely cold.
  • Even the flour and the salt, I put it in the refrigerator for about an hour, and then the ice, the water I had in the freezer for about ten minutes until it was nice, nice and cold, and the butter, I cut it into cubes,
  • Well it was really cold to begin with, and I cut it into little cubes and put it back in the fridge, just so that those cubes will really harden up as well.
  • Now you're going to work really, really quickly, I'm doing this in a food processor because I think it's the best way to do it, but you can do it by hand.
  • The only problem is that if you do it by hand, using your actual hands and your fingers, the warmth of your hands will kind of soften the butter, and that will make it so that the dough is not very flaky at all.
  • So this is really your best bet.
  • So in here, I'm going to put the flour and the salt, I'm going to turn it on to just pulse it really quickly, so that those two things are mixed together, I am now going to add my shortening and my butter, and I'm going to pulse about ten times until the butter is about the size of peas,
  • And it's just distributed all the way through the flour.
  • Now what I'm going to do is, with a tablespoon measure, I'm going to go through the little opening here, I'm going to pulse and put it in.
  • You're going to need between three to five tablespoons of water.
  • I think I'm going to stop around there.
  • One more.
  • This is how you know when you're in business.
  • You take your dough, you pinch it, it stays together beautifully, you know you're good to go.
  • Now all I'm going to do, and you'll notice I'm working very very quickly, because I want to keep everything as cold as possible, because now this is going to have to be rolled into a little ball or a disc,
  • Whichever you want to do.
  • And this is enough for one nine inch pie crust, but what I do, and what I suggest you do, is make two to three times the amount, and then divide it, and then keep it in the freezer.
  • You know, roll it out, keep it in the freezer, so you're ready to go.
  • That way if you want to make like an apple pie or something, you know, you're ready.
  • If you want to make a pumpkin pie, you're ready.
  • Now all you want to do is cover this with plastic wrap, and if you were to use it right away, you couldn't.
  • You have to wait at least thirty minutes in the refrigerator for the gluten to kind of relax, and for everything to get nice and cold again.
  • Here we go!
  • And that is it!
  • That is basic pie crust, and I guarantee you if you use this recipe, and you use my method of having all your ingredients extremely cold and working very, very quickly, this is going to be your go-to recipe,
  • Because it's easy, it's no fail, I mean it takes minutes to make.
  • And all I do is keep them just like this, in the freezer, stashed away, three or four of them, and then anytime I want a fresh pie or something, get it out of the freezer, put it in the fridge, just so it defrosts while you're at work,
  • And then that night you can make a fresh pie for your guests, and don't think you've been slimming away to make that pie crust all day, but you and I all know the truth.
  • Now that's it!
  • This is going to go into the fridge, and I'm done, probably wait for me till tomorrow to make a pie with it.
  • That's it!
  • I hope you guys have enjoyed spending time with me, go to my website at www.laurainthekitchen.com, I will have the full recipe with all the amounts, you print it out, make it, and I guarantee you're going to love it.
  • See ya!
