Cheddar Cheese Crust
Used in the Granny Smith Apple Pie (see separate recipe in
Desserts section).
Makes enough crust for 8 servings or 1 pie
INGREDIENTS
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
and frozen for 15 minutes
1 1/2 cups shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/3 to 1/2 cup ice water, or as needed
METHOD
1 Prepare the pastry dough: Put the flour and salt in the bowl of your
food processor fitted with the Processing Blade. Pulse the machine
5 or 6 times to combine them. Add the frozen butter and process for
5 seconds. Add the shredded cheddar and pulse the machine four
times to mix it in.
2 In a measuring cup, combine the cider vinegar and 1/3 cup ice water.
With the motor running, pour the vinegar/water mixture through the
feed tube and continue processing until a ball of dough forms. If the
dough doesn't come together, add another tablespoon or two of ice
water.
3 Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface, form it into
an even ball, and cut it into two pieces, one slightly larger than the
other. Pat each piece into a flattened disk, wrap it in plastic wrap,
then chill the disks in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
