Steps:
- Place flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor; process to combine. Add butter, and process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add 1/2 to 3/4 cup ice water in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube with the machine running, just until the dough holds together. Do not process for more than 30 seconds. Test dough by squeezing a small amount together; if it is still crumbly, add a bit more water.
- Turn dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap. Press into a flattened circle, and wrap in the plastic. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.
Tips:
- To create the perfect deep-dish pâté brisée, use a food processor to blend the flour and butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add ice water one tablespoon at a time until the dough just comes together. Do not overwork the dough, as this will make it tough.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill it for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- When rolling out the dough, use a light touch and work quickly to prevent the dough from becoming warm and sticky.
- To prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin, lightly flour the surface and the top of the dough.
- If the dough becomes too warm and sticky, chill it for a few minutes before continuing to roll it out.
- When transferring the dough to the pie plate, be careful not to stretch it. Gently ease the dough into the plate, pressing it into the corners and up the sides.
- Trim the edges of the dough so that they are flush with the rim of the pie plate.
- Before baking, chill the dough for at least 15 minutes to help prevent it from shrinking.
- To prevent the bottom of the pie crust from becoming soggy, pre-bake it for 10-15 minutes before filling it.
