QUICHE CRUST / SHORTCRUST PASTRY FOR PIES
Recipe video above. This is a recipe for quiche and pie crusts, both of which are made using shortcrust pastry. This is a great, EASY classic quiche crust. Quiche crusts are just made with shortcrust pastry. Made using a food processor, very slightly adapted from this recipe by Emeril Lagasse.Inactive chill time: 1 hour. This is the recipe I've been using for years and years, and it has never failed me! Makes pastry for 1 x 23cm / 9" pie dish or tart tin (serves 8 - 12 people).

Steps:
- Place flour, salt and butter in a food processor.
- Pulse 10 times or until it looks like breadcrumbs.
- With the motor running on low, pour 2.5 tbsp of water into the tube feeder.
- Turn up to high and blitz for 30 seconds or until it turns into a ball of dough. Initially it will look like breadcrumbs, then it will turn into a ball of soft dough - some random escaped bits is fine. If it doesn't look like its coming together at 20 seconds, add another 1/2 tbsp of water. Don't blitz longer than 30 seconds at most.
- Form a disc, wrap in cling wrap. If there are escaped crumble bits, that's fine - just press them in. Refrigerate for 1 - 3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 200C/390F (standard) or 180C/350F (fan forced)
- Sprinkle work surface with flour, unwrap dough and place on the flour. Sprinkle top with flour, then roll out into a 27cm/11" round.
- Gently roll the pastry so it wraps around the rolling pin.
- Unroll it over the quiche pan or pie dish - 23cm / 9".
- Press the pastry into the edges of the quiche pan, patching up edges if required (if pastry doesn't quite reach top of rim).
- Roll the rolling pin across the top to cut off the excess pastry.
- Optional extra "safe measure" refrigeration - 15 minutes. See (Note 2).
- Place a large piece of parchment paper over the pastry, then fill with baking beads or lots of rice or dried beans to weigh it down. (Note 3)
- Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from oven.
- Turn oven DOWN to 180C/350F (or 160C/320F fan).
- Use excess paper to CAREFULLY remove hot beads, then return to oven for 10 minutes or until base is light golden.
- Remove from oven and fill with chosen Quiche Filling. Quiche Lorraine, Salmon Quiche, Italian Sausage or your other filling of choice.
- The pastry will not be 100% cooked, it finishes cooking with the filling. It's cooked enough so the crust will not go soggy.

QUICHE CRUST
A great crust for quiches. Use it with the Artichoke, Leek and Ham Quiche Filling #200905 or your own favorite filling. From Jan Roberts-Dominguez's "The Onion Cookbook". I've included both her by-hand and food processor directions. Preparation time includes chilling time.

Steps:
- Preparing the dough.
- By Hand:.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour with the salt.
- Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut the butter and vegetable shortening into the flour until it resembles coarse meal.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and ice water.
- Stirring with a fork, add only enough of this to the flour/butter mixture for the dough to start holding together.
- Food Processor method:.
- Place the flour and salt into the work bowl of a food processor and pulse briefly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and ice water.
- As you pulse the machine, add only enough of the egg/ice water mixture through the feed tube for the flour/butter mixture to start holding together.
- Forming the crust:.
- Collect the pastry and form it into a ball on a lightly floured surface.
- Gently press the ball into a flat circle about 1 inch thick.
- Cover it with plastic wrap and chill for at least 20 minutes before rolling it out.
- It can be refrigerated overnight at this point or frozen for later use.
- When ready to use, sprinkle the work surface with more flour and roll the pastry into a 16-inch circle, 1/8 - 1/4 inch thick.
- Lightly butter a 10 inch quiche or pie pan.
- Gently press the dough into the pan.
- Tuck the excess dough under to form a thick edge.
- Crimp the edges decoratively with your fingers or a fork.
- Refrigerate the crust until you are ready to use it in your favorite quiche recipe.
- Not necessary to pre-bake before using however, if using with the Artichoke, Leek and Ham Quiche Filling #200905, partially bake at 350F for 10 minutes before adding the filling and baking.

Steps:
- Place flour in a large bowl. Sprinkle in the chopped butter; rub butter into the flour until it resembles bread crumbs. Stir in the grated cheese. Sprinkle water over the flour mixture, a teaspoon at a time, stirring lightly with a fork. Add just enough water to allow the dough form a ball and cleanly leave the sides of the bowl. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Roll out dough, and place in a 9 inch pie/quiche pan. Use a fork to prick holes over the bottom of the pastry.
- Bake crust in preheated oven for 10 minutes before filling with quiche custard of your choice.

FLAKY QUICHE CRUST FROM SCRATCH
Steps:
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and ice water. Set the bowl aside
- In the bowl of a food processor, add the flour and salt. Pulse briefly until mixed. Add in the the cubed butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add in the egg/ice-water mixture. Pulse again until a lovely dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly-floured board. Roll out the quiche crust so that it fits the measurements of your quiche pan or dish. Lay the rolled out dough onto the top of the quiche pan. Using your hands, gently press the dough into place. With a paring knife, slice off any extra dough that's hanging over the rim of the pan or dish
- Stick the quiche pan with the dough into the freezer for approximately 20-25 minutes (but if you leave it in there a bit longer, that's fine too). For a flaky quiche crust it's important that the crust is cold when it's filled and cooked.
- Your cold quiche crust is ready to be filled and baked!
POTATO CRUST QUICHE
My husband and I have lived in four different states, and we've grown potatoes in every one of them. I mostly make this dish for family, but company loves it, too. It's almost a meal in itself-all you need to add is a salad. -Nancy Smith, Scottsdale, Arizona

- In a medium bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, kosher salt, and baking powder. Slice the butter into pieces, then cut it into the flour mixture using a pastry blender until a coarse meal texture is obtained. Sprinkle the ice water over the flour 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing gradually with fork until the dough sticks together. Add additional water by the tablespoon until the dough comes together but is not sticky. Form the dough into a ball.
- If you have a pastry cloth, set it up and dust it with flour; otherwise, flour a clean work surface. Put on a rolling pin cover (optional), and either way, dust the pin in flour. Roll the dough to an even 12-inch circle (which corresponds to the 9-inch pie pan). Use a rolling pin to transfer the dough to the pie pan (make sure it is standard and not deep dish). Fold the overhanging dough backwards and seal it to form a rim. Then press it with the tines of a fork to decorate the edges (see the photos). Use a fork to gently prick holes in the bottom and sides of the crust (this helps it to not puff up while blind baking).
- Freeze the crust for 10 minutes before blind baking. (Or, you can wrap it in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 1 month.)
