I tried this with my pie dough and it really helps build in extra flakiness. Watching bakers in Lisbon make the dough for custard tarts, they rolled the finished dough into a sausage adding more and more layers, almost as if making puff pastry. The dough should be fully moistened, no dry pockets.Īt this stage I do something a little unusual, something I borrowed from the bakers of Portugal, something that helps create a super flaky dough. Tip the dough mix out onto the work surface and use your hands to gently bring it together into a uniform mass.
Continue adding the water in this manner until when you squeeze the mixture and it starts to hold together. Make a well in the middle of the bowl and pour in a couple tbsp of the water mixture at a time, tossing together with the flour to distribute. Mix together the water and vodka in a small bowl. Pop the bowl into the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up the butter. This stage coats all the flour in fat which helps to give the dough some tenderness.Īdd the remaining butter and press the pieces into flat sheets of butter. Rub this portion of butter into the flour, as if making a crumble, until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. The sugar is optional but it helps promote browning in the dough and helps it have flavour of its own so I tend to use it regardless of whether I am making a sweet or savoury pie, simply reducing the sugar a little if making a savoury pie.Īdd a quarter of the butter to the bowl and toss in the flour. To make the pie dough place the flour into a large bowl and mix together with the salt and sugar. I promise you it is even easier than making this pie!

One way to create a strong password is to use three random words, and maybe throw some numbers or special characters in there too to make the password even stronger. Hackers can use your email to access many of your personal accounts, by asking for your password to be reset, and find out personal information, such as your bank details, address or date of birth, leaving you vulnerable to identity theft or fraud. Since our email passwords are the gateway to lots of personal information and other online accounts, it is imperative to secure them with strong passwords. One thing you can do is make #OneReset to your email password to make it strong and separate to the ones you use for your other online accounts. I am currently working with Cyber Aware on their #OneReset campaign to show you a simple step to protect yourself online. Something else that is easier than it seems is protecting yourself online. In my mind any pie is an impressive dessert but if you want to show off just a little bit why not make one with a lattice crust, its easier than it looks I promise, but its also very pretty and adds a little wow factor. You can make it fully in advance and either serve it at room temperature or reheat it in the oven and serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. When it comes to dessert I think pie is a great prepare ahead dessert, you definitely don’t want to making pastry when you should be enjoying a catch up with friends. Simple dishes and preparing in advance is obviously the key, we want to spend as little time in the kitchen as possible. We plan too much, and end up spending all our time hidden away in the kitchen, not with our friends which was the point in the first place.
Having people round for dinner is meant to be fun, but cooking for people at home isn’t always the most relaxing event.
