    Utensils Used
    | 1. Insert metal blade into your food processor. | 2. Add flour, butter and salt and process until mixture is like coarse meal; it takes about 8 to 10 seconds. | 3. Add ice water and pulse, not process, until dough begins to clump together; don't let it form a ball. | 4. Remove dough from processor and place in a freezer-size plastic storage zippie bag. | 5. Work through the bag to press dough together into a ball; then press into a flat disc. | 6. Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour. | 7. When you need it, roll dough out onto a lightly floured surface. | 8. Makes enough dough for a single 9 or 10-inch pie shell. | 9. Note that this is the recipe provided by Cuisinart; I am not quite as fussy and it always works for me; the key is the ice-cold butter, the ice-cold water, and not letting it process too long. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
