第一次吃quiche也記不清是在哪了, 但確定的是我一直都挺愛的, 距離上次做quiche好像約有兩個月了, 前幾天在網路上瞄到這個食譜, 心想來做做吧, 也順便試做一下派皮, 因為已前派皮都是買冷藏現成的, 但大妹說現成的派皮很多都是用酥油做的, 對健康比較不好, 再加上現成的尺寸通常都是9吋, 我的pyrex偏偏是9.5吋, 所以也在網路上找到一個非常簡單的派皮做法, 重點是從派皮開始做, 之前買的pastry blender, pastry mat, rolling pin, pie weight全都可派上用場, 這樣北極熊就開心了, 免得說買了都沒用.
Pie Crust (1 pie crust) http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Pie-Crust-IV/Detail.aspx
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt (for savory pie), 1/4 tsp salt + 1/2 tbsp sugar (for sweet pie)
- 1/2 cup ice water
Directions:
- Mix butter, flour, and salt together with a fork or a pastry blender until very crumbly. Add the ice water one tablespoon at a time and toss with a fork after each addition (add as much water as needed to hold together, and mix lightly with a fork).
- Refrigerated for 30 minutes prior to roll gently on a floured pastry cloth to about an inch larger than pie plate. Fold carefully in half, lift to pie plate, and unfold. Press into pan. For a single-crust pie, trim with a small knife to about 1/2 inch beyond rim. Fold up, and pinch so edge of pie is raised from rim. Refrigerated it for another 30 minutes before filling in.

原本的食譜裡面是沒有加mushroom的, 但我們兩個就跟哈比人一樣超愛mushroom, 所以就自己加了.
