Pate Brisee For The Four Cheese Barquettes Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Sift the flour and a pinch of salt into a mound on the counter and add the diced butter. Rub the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. Shape into a mound, and make a well in the center and pour in the beaten egg ad 2 tbs water.
  • Knead lightly by hand (your hands should be cold--if necessary hold them under cold running water) or a metal spatula.
  • Wrap the pastry in plastic wrap, flatten gently with a rolling pin and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Divide the pastry into several pieces, roll out on a lightly floured surface and use to line boat-shaped, oval or round tartlet tins. Line with baking parchment or wax paper and fill with baking beans.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  • Remove the pans from the oven, remove the beans and parchment or wax paper, and let cool before filling.
  • The quantity of a pastry given here is also enough for two 9-inch round pies. Halve or double the quantity according to your requirements.
