Shortcrust Pie Crust
Shortcrust pie crust is a foundational pastry made primarily from flour, solid fat (typically butter or shortening), and cold water, baked to a crisp, crumbly texture. Its high fat-to-flour ratio creates a tender, flaky base for both sweet and savory pies, though it contributes significant carbohydrates and saturated fats. While often homemade, commercial versions may include preservatives or hydrogenated oils to extend shelf life.
