Using a pastry blender, two knives or your fingertips, cut in margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Drizzle in cold water, a little at a time, mixing lightly. Add additional water as needed until dough just starts to hold together. Form dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, ad chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Place chilled dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper to help rolling out and transferring to pans. Bake as directed in your recipe. Use as pastry for both sweet and savory pies, turnovers and tarts. |
