PIECRUST! A MANIFESTO!
I once wrote someone trying to impress a new love some piecrust instructions and thought I'd share them here:
The secret of good pie is: keep your heart warm but your butter cold.
PIECRUST! A MANIFESTO! I once wrote someone trying to impress a new love some piecrust instructions and thought I'd share them here: The secret of good pie is: keep your heart warm but your butter cold. Ounces or grams, all that matters is a one-part-butter-to-three-parts-flour recipe (only a little more butter and a tiny bit less flour than that makes it easier to work and richer, so cheat with all your warm heart, because reality wants to be richer than the rules). About 1.5-2 cups of flour per pie, butter proportionate. Put the butter in the freezer for a while and then grate it, if you can get a grater. Otherwise chop it as small as you can with a knife or knives and mix it into the flour until the largest lump of cold butter is as small as a pea a princess would feel under her seventh mattress down. I always work it by hand. On the one hand, your hands emit warmth, so you better be fast, on the other, what better tool is there? Take some very, very icy ice water--pour about half a cup of water over lots of ice--and pour some of that that chilly, chilly water into a well in that mixture. Don't overwater; it's easier to add water than thicken a gummy piecrust mix. Mix until you have a flaky pastry that will fall apart a little but mostly hang together in balls of piecrust--you don't want it to get sticky. And you don't want to overwork your dough.

I'd compare it to a croissant or a good piecrust (except, you know, meat.)

I just made a piecrust using the New York Times recipe and it told me to cut out half of the butter and 3 Ivy League presidents?

A splendid example of Cretaceous goniasterid, Metopaster parkinsoni from the white chalks of KENT! You don't often find inact specimens like this-mostly individual ossicles. #echinoday

My favourite "cheesecake" is just yoghurt mixed with pudding powder on piecrust. Super easy and impressed many people so far 😎

Spoon-Skull crosses all three arms & says, well, I'm wearing the huge Elizabethan piecrust collar, like I said I would

Gotta tell you, I'm honestly not loving it

May this cute skull bring you joy on this Tuesday.
We are looking at a close up of a silver spoon engraved with a small skull with an overbite.

Trust like piecrust, easily made, easily broken, and irreparable after

Eventually we reduced it to a sort of pulp that we could combine with appropriate spices and we smashed it into a piecrust and baked it. I have no memory of eating it and it's possible we didn't even try.

basically we figured out that her rhubarb pie uses tapioca pudding as a thickener instead of flour so my mom found a recipe for that and combined it with her own piecrust and it's nice and tart in a way the original pie was not

I can’t really make a pretty pie crust, but I sure can make a giant one. That one is 16 inches across. All the other ingredients are prepped and waiting on the piecrust to par-bake. 🍜🍽️
