“If you don’t like this pastry it’s because you’re wrong.”

LOL!

So you’re basically making pie crust with gee? I could live with that. :)

Grandma’s recipe calls for a little bit of vinegar (1/2 tsp?) in her pie crust. Ever heard of that?

I don’t clarify the butter, I just remove the water so I don’t think it’s actually ghee but I’m often wrong.

I’ve never used vinegar in pie crust.I’m not sure what acid would do for the crust. Perhaps it retards gluten formation for a flakier product.
