Steps:
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt; pulse to combine. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some larger pieces remaining, about 10 seconds. (To mix by hand, combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then cut in butter with a pastry blender.)
- With the machine running, add ice water through the feed tube in a slow, steady stream, just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky. Do not process more than 30 seconds. Test by squeezing a small amount of the dough together; if it is still too crumbly, add a bit more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Turn out dough onto a clean work surface. Divide in half, and place each half on a piece of plastic wrap. Shape into flattened rectangles. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees with a rack in center and a large sheet of foil on rack below. In a large bowl, gently combine pears, sugar, lemon peel, cornstarch, lemon juice, salt, and nutmeg.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough to a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour filling into pie shell; dot butter over top. Roll out second disk of dough to a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Drape over filling. Trim overhang to 1 inch; press to seal, then tuck under and crimp. Brush top with beaten egg. Cut 5 leaf-shaped vents in top crust. Insert cinnamon stick in center as a stem. Freeze 30 minutes.
- Bake until crust is golden on bottom and juices are bubbling in center, 1 hour, 15 minutes to 1 hour, 30 minutes (if browning too quickly, tent top or edge with foil). Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 4 hours. Cut into slices to serve.

Got this from the internet a la Martha Steward. This particular recipe was invented by Lucinda Scala Quinn. You can chill this 1 hour or over night. It is rich and buttery and very flakey. Fill with your favourite filling and cook acording to directions.

Steps:
- Work the margarine & shortening very lightly into the flour by using your fingers to work them and then lightly and quickly rotating it between your palms. Make a well in the center. One tablespoon at a time, add the water, using your index finger to stir the water into the flour in a spiral, beginning at the center and moving gradually to the outer edge. The dough should be soft enough to gather up into a ball but should not stick to your fingers or the board. Allow the dough to rest for 2 to 36 hours in the fridge. Cover it with a damp towel for the shorter time or with foil or plastic wrap for the longer. Resting breaks any rubbery reactions from being handled. To roll, divide the dough in two with one slightly larger than the other. Shape each half into a flattened circle. Lightly dust a wooden board with flour. Use a floured rolling pin to roll from the center out, turning the dough as you go. Add flour to the board as needed but try to keep to a minimum. Do not push to and fro which toughens the dough. Patch any tears rather than rerolling. Roll the bottom crust with an overhang to allow for pinching the edges. Dough should be 1/8" or less in thickness.

PATE BRISEE FOOD PROCESSOR PIE CRUST (REAL SIMPLE)
This recipe is from the Real Simple website and is super easy. This is a sweet sugar crust that can be rolled or patted into the pie pan. You can adjust the sugar to taste. I like this recipe a lot because it doesn't use shortening - an ingredient that is expensive and hard to find where I live.

Steps:
- To Make Crust:.
- In a food processor, pulse the flour, butter, sugar, and salt until the mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size clumps of butter remaining.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the water. Pulse until the mixture holds together when squeezed but is still crumbly (add more water, a little at a time, as necessary). Avoid overprocessing, which will make the dough tough.
- Place the still crumbly mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap. Shape it into a 1-inch-thick disk, using the plastic wrap to help. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 3 days. (The dough can be frozen at this point for up to 2 months.).
- NOTE - you can also pat the crust into the pie pan at this point, then refrigerate at least one hour before baking.
- To Prepare Crust for Baking:.
- Place the disk of dough on a floured piece of parchment or wax paper. Using your knuckles, make indentations around the perimeter of the dough (this will help prevent cracking when you roll the dough out).
- With a floured rolling pin, roll the dough into an 12-inch circle (work from the center outward, and use the parchment to rotate the dough). Flour the rolling pin, parchment, and dough as necessary to prevent sticking.
- Loosen the dough from the parchment and carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Fit the dough into the plate (avoid stretching). Trim the dough to a 1-inch overhang and tuck it under itself to create a thick rim.
- With the index finger of one hand, press the dough against the thumb and forefinger of the opposite hand; continue around the perimeter of the crust. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days before using.

MARTHA STEWART'S PATE BRISEE -- BASIC PIE CRUST
This is my favorite pie crust. I have yet to make it right, with all cold ingredients, so if you don't have time to chill the flour etc, it will be fine. I also have never made this in my food processor-- just with my good old pastry blender and a bowl. I have used this for both sweet and savory dishes. Work time includes 1 hour chill time (I do not always do this either...)

Steps:
- Secrets to a good pie crust: chilled ingredients and chilled dough. Margarine or shortening can be used instead of butter (but butter is my favorite!).
- Put flour, salt and sugar in a bowl, blender or food processor. Add the pieces of butter and process approximately 10 seconds or until it resembles "coarse meal.".
- Add ice water drop by drop while machine is running (or you are mixing)--- just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky. Do not mix longer than 30 seconds.
- Roll dough out on a piece of plastic wrap. Press down slightly. Chill for at least one hour.
