Ingredients

• ✓ all-purpose flour
• shortening
• butter
• salt
• ice water

Instructions

1. 1 Gather the ingredients.
2. 2 Measure flour into the processor with the regular blade attached. Add chilled and cubed shortening and unsalted butter. Add salt, close the lid, and pulse three times with three counts per pulse to lightly mix the ingredients.
3. 3 With the motor running, pour ice water into the food processor bowl just until the dough just starts to get noticeably crumbly. Don't wait until it is a big clump or it will be way too wet and will turn out tough.
4. 4 Transfer the crumbly dough into a bowl, and form it into a ball with your hand, squeezing it a bit to make it stick together. If it just won't form a ball, add a tiny bit more water.
5. 5 Wrap dough in wax paper or plastic wrap; chill dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before using in your favorite pie recipe.

Ingredients

• ✓ all-purpose flour
• ✓ all-purpose flour
• olive oil
• salt
• water
• white wine vinegar
• cornstarch

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Place 2 cups flour in a mixing bowl and make a well in the center; drizzle in olive oil and add salt.
3. 3 Pour in warm water and white wine vinegar, then mix until dough just comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, 1 to 2 minutes.
4. 4 Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, using just enough flour to keep it from sticking to the work surface or your hands, 2 or 3 minutes. Continue to knead until dough is supple and elastic, about 5 more minutes.
5. 5 Wrap dough ball in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature, 1 to 2 hours.
6. 6 Use a kitchen scale to divide dough into twenty 25-gram portions; roll each portion into a ball. Place on a plate and cover with plastic wrap to prevent dough balls from drying out while you begin to roll them out. Work in batches of 5.
7. 7 Mix cornstarch and 2 tablespoons flour together in a bowl. Dust a work surface and the first dough ball with cornstarch mixture.
8. 8 Flatten and roll out into a circle, about 5 inches in diameter. Dust again with cornstarch mixture. Set circle to one side. Roll out 4 more dough balls to about the same diameter and stack them on the first one, dusting each layer with more cornstarch mixture to keep them from sticking together.
9. 9 When you have 5 circles, roll out the stack to a larger circle about double in size, turning as you go to maintain a round shape. Separate each layer and lay out the circles. Reapply more cornstarch mixture where needed and restack them.
10. 10 Roll again until the 5-layer stack is paper-thin, about 10 to 12 inches in diameter. Place on a sheet of parchment paper; top with another piece of parchment. Gently roll up the dough; wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
11. 11 Repeat with the remaining 15 balls of dough in batches of 5.
