For teaching me the secret handshake way of making delicious short, sweet, crumbly, fine, delish pastry for mince pies! Made 24 today, and I could sit and eat the lot!
Hard cold lard, hold cold butter, and ice cold water is what is required, firm dough, not at all sticky. PERFECT!
I have the force now! ;D ;D ;D ;D
So there may be hope for me yet ... ?
My pastry resembles cardboard ...
