These crusts are the base for most pastry and pie recipes. The crust is first baked and then the filling is added, to make various pies.

While making crusts, take care not to knead the dough too much as the crumbly texture will be lost and you will end-up with a bread-like texture.

We have used this crust to make Vegetable Stew On A Shortcrust Pastry and Mixed Vegetable Pie .
