Rye Crust For Savory Pies And Pastry Adapted From Recipe 243072

Steps:

• Place flours and salt in food processor work bowl and pulse for 2 seconds to combine.
• Add butter. Pulse 3-4 times, 2-3 seconds each time, or until mixture is crumbly.
• Sprinkle in water, a tablespoon at a time, pulsing briefly after each addition, until mixture pulls away from the side of the work bowl and starts to form a ball. I find that 4 tablespoons water is usually enough, but you can add up to 3 more if your mixture is dry--just don't let it get too wet and sticky.
• Remove from bowl and form into two balls.
• Flatten each ball slightly.
• Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for about 10 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball out into a circle.
• Use in any savory recipe that calls for pie crusts.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°. In small bowl, mix flour and salt. Using a fork, cut in shortening until mixture is the size of peas. Sprinkle with water, one tablespoon at a time. Blend lightly with fork until all flour is moistened. Roll out on a floured board. Carefully lift pastry into pie shell. Prick pastry several times on the bottom and sides with fork. Bake 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Add flour and salt to food processor work bowl fitted with multi-purpose blade. Pulse for 2 seconds to blend.
• Add shortening and butter. Pulse 3-4 times, about 2-3 seconds each time, until mixture is crumbly.
• Sprinkle 5 tablespoons ice-cold water over mixture and pulse 1-3 times, about 2-3 seconds each time, until mixture pulls away from sides of work bowl and starts to form a loose ball. If necessary you can add up to 1-2 more tablespoons of water a bit at a time, but don't let it get too wet.
• Remove from bowl and form into 2 balls.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a circle.
• Use crusts as directed in your recipe, for one double-crust pie, or two single-crust pies.

Steps:

• Place the flour, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse to combine. Add the butter and process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. While the machine is running, gradually drizzle in the water, processing until the dough comes together to form a ball.

Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a firm dough. , Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours. , Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Shape each into a round loaf; place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
