Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. On lightly floured surface, with floured rolling pin, roll dough into 12-inch round. Ease dough round into 9-inch glass or ceramic pie plate. Gently press dough against bottom and up side of plate without stretching. Trim dough edge, keeping overhang intact. Transfer overhang to work surface. From overhang, with 3/4-inch decorative cookie cutter, cut 40 shapes, rerolling if necessary, for decorating rim of pie later. Refrigerate pie shell 15 minutes. Refrigerate cut shapes until ready to use.
• Line pie shell with foil or parchment and fill with pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until beginning to set. Remove foil with weights and bake 13 to 15 minutes longer or until golden.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, with wire whisk, mix sugar, syrup, whole eggs, butter, bourbon, and salt until well blended.
• Place hot pie shell in 18- by 12-inch jelly-roll pan. Lightly brush rim of pie shell with egg white. Gently and carefully press cut shapes around rim. Spread pecans evenly in pie shell, then pour sugar mixture over them.
• Bake 35 minutes or until filling is golden brown, puffed, and set around edge, but center still jiggles slightly. Cool completely on wire rack.

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a food processor, combine flours, powdered sugar, and salt. Pulse a few times to combine. Sprinkle pieces of butter over flour mixture, stir in lightly, then pulse about 6 times. Sprinkle shortening pieces over mixture, stir in lightly, then pulse about 6 to 7 more times.
• Sprinkle with half of the water. Pulse 5 times. Sprinkle with remaining water and pulse about 6 times, until dough begins to clump.
• Empty large crumbs into a bowl. Pack and knead just 2 or 3 times to form a cohesive dough.
• Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Roll out on a floured surface to fit pie pan. Fold over and fit into pan, cutting off excess. Form a decorative edge around plate. Before adding filling, brush with a little of the beaten egg white, if desired.
• Gather ingredients.
• Preheat oven to 400 F. In a mixing bowl, combine beaten eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and salt. Stir to blend well. Stir in pecans.
• Pour into unbaked pie shell. Bake 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 F and bake 25 to 30 minutes longer. If at any point, the crust edge is browning too much, cover with a pie ring or foil ring .
• When it's done, the outer edge of the pecan pie filling should be slightly puffed and set, and the middle will have just a slight jiggle. Let pecan pie cool completely on a rack (this will take between 2 hours and several hours, depending on your kitchen temperature).
• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
