re: #257 The Vicious Babushka
There is a fine line between “artistic” pie crusts and “soft, flaky” pie crusts. I have found out that the more you manipulate the dough, the harder and tougher it gets. So yeah while those pie crusts might be pleasing to the eye, they are chewy.
At some point you have to decide if your pie is for eating or instagram.
That said, I’m going to order some nice pie dough cutters on Amazon.
Yes, it’s the same with Pasta Dough. The less manipulation the better!
